    I was at the original Occupy Wall Street back in 2011, and there was a really large number of Ron Paul guys hanging around. For one brief shining moment, it looked like they might set aside all their bullshit and actually focus on taking down the oligarchy. It didn’t last, but I remember both how strange and hopeful it was. Alas.

      A bunch of libertarians refusing to pull their weight over ideological bullshit? Real Atlas Shrugged moment.
