    A fantastic heartfelt reading... stark reminder of what has been lost and of what to expect. I cannot listen to these words or read them myself without feeling the same emotions well up within just as Mr. Maloney is so moved.

    If only there was a way to get this viewed by tens of millions, it would spark a revolution of Reason across America.

      While I would agree that if people would listen to this with a open mind, it would change the world, I fear we may have slipped beyond point where this can happen. I fear we are at the point Ayn's fictional society was at when she penned those words. That our society has spent 55 years ignoring her warnings of the excesses, the tyranny of government, the perversion of this great and nodal experiment of Franklin and Jefferson. And having ignored it, they are opening the door that leads to it's cannibalistic self consumption.

      We are now eating the future of our young. How soon until the feast of that table is consumed and we turn upon ourselves? How soon until the depravity of Starnsville and Detroit settles upon the entire nation? The disease flows from Washington DC like the puss and corruption from a bloated and gangrene filled limb that a surgeon can only amputate or watch the body die. We watch while the corruption flows from one body to another until the entire society has become so diseased that no surgeon can act swiftly and surly enough to save the mind.

      And as Francisco said, "that day and those men are among you".
