In this episode, Jonathan explores Hank Reardon's perception that business enterprise is a "shameful cult." This involves a larger discussion of the value of work and the psychological toll of living with people who have different values. Jonathan mentions the book Callings as an example of how work can hold larger value.
My five themes to explore in this podcast's close read of Atlas Shrugged are:

  1. What is human nature?
  2. Straw-man arguments and their impact on the world Ayn Rand creates.
  3. Dagny Taggart as a true hero.
  4. How empathy can be de-legitimized.
  5. What is Capitalism and what is wrong with it?
