Airlines are blaming hundreds of flight cancellations on the weather, but it’s actually the climate. The Mandatory Vaccination climate. Pilots are walking away. Going, Galt (sort of), but it’s not just them. And you have to wonder if the Dems ever saw this coming?
Going Galt
Colorado Ammo Mag Company says “You Pass that Bill and We’re Gone.”

On Friday, liberal lawmakers in the Colorado state House passed legislation requiring background checks on private gun sales and placing limits on ammo magazines. A final vote may come today before the bills move on to the state Senate. Dems now hold majorities in both chambers and the governor’s mansion is occupied by Democrat John Hickenlooper.

Colorado’s largest and most profitable manufacturer of high-capacity ammunition magazines has vowed to leave the state if lawmakers pass a measure banning the devices — a move officials with the company say could cost hundreds of jobs and upward of $85 million in potential spending this year
Most of Magpul’s materials vendors are in Colorado and it looks like some of them may follow Magpul wherever they go, taking jobs, revenues…all of it with them.
So is Magpul that serious?
What is “going Galt? What is “Irish democracy”?
And how are they connected?
Atlas Shrugged – The Movie?
Someone said this was one of the most anticipated movies…..I….no, I was not anticipating it. In fact I didn’t know they were making it. And having watched the trailer, the first two words to come to my mind were ‘Red Box.’
But who am I? Certainly not a qualified movie critic. And this has to be at least as good as most of the crap that Hollywood makes. And Hollywood makes a lot of crap. So will this be more crap? I can’t tell you that from the trailer. Movie trailers are like airbrushed models in print. That’s about as good as it is ever going to look. So does it look good enough? Red Box.
I realize the books continued appeal is why we have a movie based on it. I get the whole idea of going Galt. And that will appeal to a slice of the movie-going public, but how big a slice. Ayn Rand is provocative but can it be translated onto the big screen, and since this is part one, how many more parts must we endure to resolve the driving question of this trailer. Who is John Galt?
One bonus I can comment on is that it is NOT scheduled to be released in 3D. Movies are made in 3D as an excuse to charge 50% more for a ticket, turning a nice family outing to the cinema into another reason to refinance. The movie is not supposed to cost more than dinner is it? For that kind of cash you should get live actors and sets and an intermission so you can hit the restroom and not miss anything.
But that doesn’t get us any closer to the trailer for Atlas Shrugged Part 1. So here it is, on the jump, one of the most anticipated Movies….well, we talked about that already. I watched the trailer. I’m still not anticipating it. Sorry.
