Every time I hear or read what Greenspan says I become more and more convinced that his goal is to bring down the system ala Atlas Shrugged style. These are not the words of an objectivist, they are the words of a statist. Or, at very best, an extremely pragmatic capitalist. Dude is trying to bring down the whole Money as Debt and Corporatism system in on swoop.

Note to the strikers: Bring me with you.




While it's true that Greenspan was a close associate of Ayn Rand for years, it rises to the level of conspiracy theory to suppose that Atlas Shrugged was meant as some sort of blueprint for real world action crafted in the 1950's and slowly implemented over time by Rand's associates. Right up there with the theory that Rand is a member of the Illuminati and Atlas Shrugged is the Illuminati game-plan to take over the world.
