Rand did an exquisit job of attaching the readers to each one of these characters. Francisco was her childhood crush that lasted into her late teens/early twenties. Hank Rearden was a man's man and a captain of industry. They worked hand-in-hand navigating the red tape, pitfalls, irrational regulations, and rediculous demands set forth by the government (which were all for "the good of the people" mind you. Finally, John Galt was the recruiter & leader of the most driven individuals in the country. He founded The Gultch and brought the country's best & brightest to it. I cna't help but think Dagny had a place in her heart for each of those three, but she settled on Galt. Do you think she made the right choice? Who would you have chosen?
