"Hello, my name is Andrew Ryan and I'm here to ask you a question: is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?

No, says the man in Washington. It belongs to the poor. No, says the man in the Vatican. It belongs to God. No, says the man in Moscow. It belongs to everyone.

I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible.
I chose... Rapture."

i think its fairly obvious hes trying to bring up a discussion based upon economics. hes using the quote to start it.

Bioshock was kind of overrated, but the dialogue was pretty good.

He thought he could choose the impossible but that's an oxymoron. He made everyone suffer for his arrogance. Or maybe he didn't make anyone suffer. Maybe that is what Rapture was all about, chaos. He gave the people exactly what they wanted.

I though Andrew Ryan's voice actor was perfectly cast.

Anyway, what is the book "Atlus Shrugged" about? I keep hearing about it...

Pretty much. He wanted no limitations and no control but at the same time he wanted everyone to be prosperous and wealthy. As always with anarchy, it took only one man to shift the balance into total crap and then everything fell apart. While he was trying to stop that man who was turning things into crap, he abandoned his own ideals and started doing extreme things to gain control, so that he could make things better. But it was too late already and things only got worse.

Well, it was written by Ayn Rand, who Bioshock borrowed many ideas from.

I don't understand how some men won't even tolerate a bead of sweat rolling off their brow.
