Many books have been written over the centuries but some so accurately described events that would occur decades later, one would think those writers had a crystal ball that actually worked.

We have heard that art imitates life, with some swearing life was truly imitating art. In reality some writers were just so in tune with the world, so observant of what was happening around them, that they were able to project a future, if the path continued in the direction they were observing it moving in.

George Orwell's "1984",  Skousen's "Naked Communist," and Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged," all written nearly or more than 50 years ago, and all eerily describing the world we live in now, the political rhetoric and games played in America, and the hysteria we are witnessing in the 21st century.

We have written about many of these books and their content individually, but thinking of them together, it is as if some writers actually "saw" the fall of America and put these works out as warnings.... ones we obviously ignored if we look at this nation in present day.
