My Galt/Readen 2012 Shirt was a hit at the Christmas party. I spent the whole night talking politics when people stopped me to ask what that shirt meant — and if they should know. Last night close to a dozen people said they’d buy Atlas Shrugged and read as their next book. (One said he’d get the talking book for the car)

The last time I wore it – I took my wife to the hospital and was stopped twice in the hospital to explain.

I feel like everyone who stops me learns about how Obama’s Socialism is making producers “Go Galt” and hopefully they’ll read the book and spread the word.

Galt-Rearden 2012
America needs John Galt and Hank Rearden to save the Producers from the Moochers

Money shouldn’t be an issue — as the T-Shirts are as inexpensive as $11.99, and sizes to 4XL. Delivery is cheap and reasonable — and sent worldwide.

Buy and give one to your Liberal friends — they’ll never figure it out.

Communists want a total government by a small few "Party" members over the rest of the People in the USA.

Cloward & Piven documented a Communist strategy to give them their total government rule, by first creating an impossible to maintain level of dependency on the government by the people, then creating and fueling riots/anarchy when the government could no longer afford to keep up with the dependence they created, and finally be positioned to quickly fill the vacuum (need for a government to restore law) with a Communist government to save the day.

In between a Republic (which our Founding Fathers created for the USA) and total Government is a Democracy, which is the pathway to Anarchy. Check out the below short and interesting video of the History of Governments, and you will see how Cloward & Piven didn’t invent this strategy — they simply studied how it has taken place many times throughout history — the most famous being the fall of the Roman Empire. After viewing the video, compare with the rioting you are seeing in Egypt, Libya, and Syria in the Middle East; Greece, Italy, France, and England in Europe; and early stages of it happening here in the USA at places like Union Rallies or at the State Capital in Madison, Wisconsin.

America’s fall from being the greatest modern culture is well on the way here in the USA.

This is not just some conspiracy theory, but an actual plan that American Progressives (such as those infesting the White House) believe in, and American media will not speak of.

An important new discussion forums on these topics is the best place to become informed. This is not a tin-foil hat site that discusses wild conspiracies — but a discussion site that actually discusses current and credible news items regarding the United Nations, New World Order, and other World Politics that will affect Americans.

About 3/4 of the way through the book Atlas Shrugged has John Galt taking over all of the TV and Radio air waves to give his manifesto, telling of what happened to all of the “Producers” that disappeared from society — and why there are so few left to pay the taxes and to produce (at Federal Government gun point) all of the products and services for the benefit of the “Looters” (Politicians and their Cronies) and the “Moochers” (those sucking on the Government’s tit for a free ride through life). I strongly suggest reading this Novel — as it is eerie how the story of the book is telling the story of today here, Europe, and South America. However, if you don’t intend to read the book — the below is a reading of John Galt’s Manifesto. I would suggest those who will read the book soon not listen to it — but to “Git ‘r done” on reading the book. It is a long Manifesto (3 one hour parts) — but there are no wasted words. Some of it won’t make much sense without knowing the pages in the book prior to the Manifesto — but much will still hit the mark.

The Manifesto is over 30,000 words — but there is a 900+ word Reader’s Digest style of condensed high points at:
