And while the downward spiral of America continues to pick up speed : " ATLAS SHRUGGED " !


Note : The book by the above title is lengthy and dense and was written many decades ago . However it tells a story of what happened when America finally reached " The Tipping Point ".
All of the good people who worked and contributed to the quality of life finally had enough and relocated . This left the " Takers " with no more support --- no more producers to exploit and chump off from .
In a micro way the theory of this novel is already in motion . Those still working who have high incomes and assets are already seeking to live in lower tax states . However the retired are leaving behind the over-taxed Northern states and relocating to the South taking their lifetime of assets with them . And as they do so they are leaving the over-population of " Takers " behind .
