Review: "Going Galt" is harder than you think...

I really like it when an author makes me think things like "what if" and "what might happen, next...".  "A Learning Experience" is one of those books.  Nuttall skips over some of his usually rich character development (the characters are good, just not as deeply developed as they could have been, nor as developed as Nuttall usually offers).  This was an intersecting trade off, unfortunately it felt like a trade off instead of a balance between world building and characters.One thing I am discovering is that no two Libertarians are alike; which is wonderful because that makes so very many different ideas available for discussion and consideration.  I have never been an Objectivist, although Ayn Rand's writings were at the core of my formative years. I always liked the thought of "going Galt" but I never really thought about just how damn hard it would really be.  I did consider many of the large problems; but like most of us, I didn't consider all the minutia that come up and bite you in the behind.  Nuttall; while maybe not covering all the bases, sure has put a lot more thought into this then me and made me think.I would be interested in more books like this that consider the nuts and bolts of a Libertarian society. I would just hope for more of a balance between world building and characters instead of a trade off...
