Atlas Shrugged

From Marginal Revolution today:

Counter-cyclical asset of the day: Atlas Shrugged

Sales of Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” have almost tripled over the first seven weeks of this year compared with sales for the same period in 2008. This continues a strong trend after bookstore sales reached an all-time annual high in 2008 of about 200,000 copies sold.

Ahh...feel the goodness just filling the room.
