I hope you enjoy this little story. It's up to you to determine what it's about.

Is money the root of all evil?

From Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged: Francisco D'Anconia's speech on money.

Ok...as you may have figured out, I love Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged. I think this book (and other Objectivist materials) need to be read more often, especially in schools. If you're life isn't going the way you want it, if you're sad and don't know why or what you can do to change it, read some of her works. You'll most likely find your answers there (as I did).

Below are some links to Objectivist literature that you should find enlightening. Click on the title of the books by Ayn Rand to review it and/or purchase a copy:

Libertarianism: A Primer cover (GIF) Additionally, I have read a book by David Boaz called Libertarianism: A Primer. I found this book to be wonderfully insightful. If you ask around, you'll find people who say that libertarianism and objectivism are conflicting philosophies. Although I think I understand why people hold this belief, I also think that there are a great number of similarities that warrant examination.
