This continues a strong trend after bookstore sales reached an all-time annual high in 2008 of about 200,000 copies sold.

After reading Lawrence Reed’s “Great Myths of the Great Depression”, Rand’s description of government interference with private business seems less like dystopian fiction and more like lightly fictionalised reporting.
Interesting Tip, thanks.
I’ll review the cliff notes from our city library. I’m reading Reinventing collapse : the Soviet example and American prospects by Dmitry Orlov as Solari Report recommended.
Crossing the Rubicon : the decline of the American empire at the end of the age of oil by Michael C.Ruppert, with your forword was an early read in my grasping for the real map.
I agree with your focus on movies to provide the reality-ism that we need to GET THE REAL MAP into our perspective. Both resources are providing value.
