OK, in the real world I think that "atlas shrugged" is a load of elitist BS that has no relevance outside the daydreams of selfish sociopaths with a superiority complex the size of a small galaxy.
In the twisted nightmare world of judge dredd, however, atlas shrugged might work.
For a dredd storyline, imagine the productive, successful, wealthy, creative people of MC1 finally tiring of living under the judge's boot and being subject to the dictates of the judges whims with no say in the laws forced on them at gunpoint.
So they leave MC1 en masse and form their own society, free from the mindless lumped masses of MC1 citizenry and the tyranny of the judges.
MC1 begins to fall apart as that tiny minority of working, creative, productive, ambitious, driven people was all that was keeping anything running. With the working minority basically giving MC1 good look at it's collective middle finger and leaving, how do the judges keep things running without industrialists, innovators, creators, doers, builders, etc.? Sure you got robot labor, but what about that essential spark of creativity and innovation? What about ambition and drive? When the people with them leave and begin to carve a society out of the cursed earth, what happens to MC1?
This could make a great judge dredd storyline, and I wanted to share the idea for anyone here to use.
