Personification of the motor that makes the world runs
The John Galt joined the
Twentieth Century Motor as a junior engineer in Wisconsin while working at this
company he found that the he can produce static electricity from the atmosphere
and it could be used as a limitless energy source. In 2007, John decided to
share his idea with his employer Gerald Jed in which he gives demonstration
about the prototypical electrostatic motor. Later on the Temporal the John’s
boss William Hasting that he builds this type of prototype around twenty-six
years old provided clue to Dangy Taggart.
The difficult time started with
the death of the Gerald and after that, his family members brought radical
change in the factory’s management. They develop a system in which people were
allowed to work with their abilities and received earning according to their
need. Overall, motor of the world is a wonderful source for the people who want
to understand the meaning of the John Galt’s provocative statement. According to the Ayn Rand's;
it is noticed that humane world is considered as the motor of the world,
however, if a man is punished for using his mind then, mind in this way may
refuse to move for the world. It is analyzed by the John Galt that people are
punished using their mind, and therefore, he quit the factory. John Galt not given
the value because he maintained the enough notes, which could help to remind
people. Therefore, it is needed to quit a system because there the people were
rewarded for the failure and punished for the success (Biddle 2009).
Regarding the John Galt's analysis it is noticed, he help
the people when they are in most vulnerable conditions. According to him, the
world is based on the socialistic system and there is the need to tell the
people that they should use their mind because it is more important than
exploiting people as world is the collectivistic system (Biddle 2009).
