Haven't red the book, but from what I picked up, isn't Atlas Shrugged pretty much that there's only a few producing members left in society, who then moves into Gault's Gulch, making the rest of US burn because of the remaining non-producing looters (aka the rest of the population) fail at everything?

I've searched bit and Gault's Gulch pretty much resembles a post-scarcity communist community (but with private property and enlightened self interest, so it's completely different). Might be wrong here due to missing critical details, since the net isn't that covering.

Now I'm a bit unfamiliar with Paul Ryan, but wanting to fix things using ideologically driven methods without data support, might not always be the best solution.
