Ralph R. Reiland, an associate professor of economics at Robert Morris University, has an article in today's Trib about the movie, "Atlas Shrugged, " which is opening on Friday, Tax Day.
"Atlas Shrugged," Ayn Rand's legendary novel, was published in 1957. Instead of focusing on victimized workers and greedy owners, the story turns the tables and shows what happens to the world when the innovators and producers go on strike, when the capitalists and owners turn out the lights and disappear.
