So Lululemon, that crazy popular (and overpriced) yoga and fitness apparel shop is causing a bit of a tizzy because they put the words “Who is John Galt” on their shopping bags.
And the radical sect of yoga practitioners are becoming increasingly miffed;
Hmm… OK.
I’m very, very familiar with Rand’s works. I have read and re-read Atlas Shrugged, The Fountainhead, Anthem and others many times during my life. And while I am not a fan of her philosophies, I do consider her to be one of the finest and most influential authors of the 20th century. Howard Roark has always been one of my fave fictional characters. And hell, the band Rush named their record label Anthem!
But, wait a minute. Let me get this straight. Opposing political philosophies are getting play in the mainstream media? Yoga peeps are miffed because their opinions about the role of the State in the modern era differs from those of a long-dead political philosopher? And a yoga shop is instigating all of this?
Gee, is it becoming OK to be smart again?
