Reaction: New Solution

            The looters are finally running out of options. They are doing everything they can do to maintain their power, but eventually whether they like it or not they are going to perish. There only hope right now is to beg for John Galt and his alliance of people to come back and rebuild the United States to its formal glory under their terms. But everyone knows that will not work; they have to meet with the demands John Galt made during his speech if they don’t want to cause even bigger catastrophes. The purpose of his speech was to tell people the truth about the state of the country and how it is run in order to convince people to take a stand against the looters - by giving up and not listening to what they have to say. The looters are fueled by the support of the people, without their support they are done for. After John Galts speech the looters didn’t know what do but were ultimately led to the conclusion that they should continue on the same path as before. They make absolutely no sense at all, they want to create a more successful prosperous nation, but how can they do that if there method relies solely on stealing from those who work hard. They heard John Galts speech and know what they need to do in order to achieve a brighter future – to give up and let those that are capable of bringing success run the country: “Neither he nor the rest of us will return until the road is clear to rebuild this country.”

            John Galts speech is a symbol of hope. People think that the country is forever ruined and that it will never recuperate, but the new system that Galt is proposing in my opinion will lead to success. There will be no more rules that restrict a person’s ability to produce. People have to be compelled to produce more or create something new; the looters are constricting this concept. People will no longer surrender their minds to others, you rely solely on yourself and the state of your life depends on whether or not you decide to use your mind to benefit the United States as a whole. The best will succeed and the poor will suffer, I know it sounds cruel but this is the road we have to take in order be successful. In other words, John Galt explains the benefits of a free economic environment without government restrictions or Laissez Faire economics.
