Yes, I suppose it's a thesis, but aside from any relationship to charity, I'm saying (just to be clear) that Atlas Shrugged is not a discussion and that it is insulting. Because Ayn Rand used the device of making her characters with views she opposed into really despicable people. I simply disagreed with her forthright writings on philosophy, but I hated Atlas Shrugged.
I agree to the extent that Atlas Shrugged uses "over the top" characterizations in much the same way that Michael Moore does in his so-called "documentaries." Lots of examples of this style of writing representing many viewpoints.
