Summary
A comparison of utopian fiction presented in Atlas Shrugged and the actual experience of living in a private community beyond the reach of government. It examines theory and practical real-world aspects of liberty, property, constitutional law, and national security in the context of a fully free society.
It presents a novel proposal to fund national security by private enterprise that does not rely upon (and has no legal right to impose) taxes. Extensive discussion of property as a moral office of responsibility to advance the general welfare by offering employment. The book is addressed to objectivists and libertarians, and it offers a new theory of value and virtue that considers individual character, personal ambition, and risk of change. Discussion of constitutional law includes loyalties beyond the law, fundamental rights, due process, and persistent presumption of innocence.
