This is the place in Atlas Shrugged where the producers moved to and left the old society to crumble.

We have so much deadweight in this country. Imagine if only half of them were contributing in a meaningful way. Or if they weren’t here.

Don't have to imagine it. That is what is happening right now.

I am looking for it too.
I think the closest we may get is a private mountain home somewhere out west. But hell, NM and CO are turning into CA and AR better get their shite together. Seeing an invasion of Leftist Locusts into ID and MT. Maybe UT or WY or NV?

Leftist progressives destroy. Ayn Rand saw it in real life.

half the dead weight... not half the whole population.

at least that's how i read it.. maybe I'm confused.

Think he meant if half of the non producers were contributing… so assume an additional 25% of the population.

The Black Hills (SD) ain't a bad way to go.
