would not substantially affect their vast holdings. The novel is about a man who stops the motor
of the world, of what happens when “the men of the mind, the intellectuals of the world, the
originators and innovators in every line of industry go on strike; when the men of creative ability
in every profession, in protest against regulation, quit and disappear.”
If we are to believe that the book represents the Illuminati’s plans for the future, then the
following excerpts may provide some insight to the mentality of the elitists who are preparing us
for one-world government.
One of the characters, Francisco d’Anconia, a copper industrialist and heir to a great fortune,
the first to join the strike, says:
“I am destroying d’Anconia Copper, consciously, deliberately, by plan and by my own
hand. I have to plan it carefully and work as hard as if I were producing a fortune- in
order not to let them notice it and stop me, in order not to let them seize the mines until it
is too late ... I shall destroy every last bit of it and every last penny of my fortune and
every ounce of copper that could feed the looters. I shall not leave it as I found it- I shall
leave it as Sebastian d’Anconia found it- then let them try to exist without him or me!”
A bit later, d’Anconia says: “We produced the wealth of the world- but we let our enemies
write its moral code.” Still later, he says: “We’ll survive without it. They won’t.”
Dagney Taggart, the main character of the book, is the head of the Taggart Transcontinental
Railroad. Her goal was to find out who John Galt was. She discovered that he was a young
inventor with the Twentieth Century Motor Company, who said he would put an end to the
regulations which bound a man to his job indefinitely. Before disappearing, he said: “I will stop
the motor of the world.” He told her:
“Dagney, we who’ve been called ‘materialists’ ... we’re the only ones who know how
little value or meaning there is in material objects ... we’re the ones who create their
value and meaning. We can afford to give them up ... We are the soul, of which railroads,
copper mines, steel mines, and oil wells are the body- and they are living entities that beat
day and night, like our hearts, in the sacred function of supporting human life, but only so
long as they remain our body, only so long as they remain the expression, the reward and
the property of achievement. Without us, they are corpses and their sole product is
poison, not wealth or food, the poison of disintegration that turns men into hordes of
scavengers ... You do not have to depend on any material possessions, they depend on
you, you create them, you own the one and only tool of production ... leave them the
carcass of that railroad, leave them all the rusted nails and rotted ties and gutted engines-
but don’t leave them your mind.”
Later in the book, Galt says:
“And the same will be happening in every other industry, wherever machines are used-
the machines which they thought could replace our minds. Plane crashes, oil tank
explosions, blast furnace breakouts, high tension wire electrocutions, subway cave-ins,
and trestle collapses- they’ll see them all. The very machines that made their life so safe-
will now make it a continuous peril ... You know that the cities will be hit worst of all.
The cities were made by the railroads and will go with them ... When the rails are cut, the
