"The Atlas Index"

There was a short article in the Economist a couple of days ago linking sales of Atlas Shrugged to the economic downturn. The most surprising stat to me is that at one point in January its sales were higher than that of Obama's "Audacity of Hope". Gives me a slight sense of optimism...

The article also led me to join the Facebook group, “Read the news today? It’s like ‘Atlas Shrugged’ is happening in real life”. So much for keeping my politics off of Facebook...
