We Need More Randian CEOs

Ayn Rand's epic doorstopper Atlas Shrugged revolves around the fantasy that productive businessmen and women, under the heroic leadership of a man named John Galt, might cast off their shackles and finally say "no" to big government, refusing to produce at the pleasure of petty bureaucrats and tin-pot tyrants. It's a cathartic fiction, but it need not be so fictional. All it takes is the willingness and the courage to refuse orders.
