22. But there is something wrong with BAD science fiction.

The best science fiction incorporates truth and uses elements of today to see what tomorrow would be like. Atlas Shrugged is the worst kind of science fiction. The kind in which the author creates a distopia with the sole intention of propping up her dismal ideology. I'm a big sci-fi fan, but Rand's tripe is certainly part of the genre.
