Atlas must be shrugging.

This Strib Feb 6 item. We need Dagny Taggart back at work, John Galt to the rescue, with Warren Buffet stepping aside since he cannot keep the trains on time.

But wait. A cynic would say it's just a Big Oil pipeline ploy, which, of course, it is.

Or blame the weather, or the government, or Atlas taking a break, if not shrugging long term.

John Henry not beating the steam drill, and then the steam drill failing to operate properly.

The unions. That must be it. Featherbedding.

Atlas formed a union? Movers and Shakers United. And we now face it playing out, in 10,327 pages, as in that dreadfully awful book by the Russian fascist lady with the funny hairdo.
