That was cute, but obviously the cartoonist missed the part of the novel in which some people of Galt's Gulch cultivated and traded their own crops while others like Hugh Akston became excellent cooks!
It's much easier for a genius to master a mundane trade than for a dolt to master an exceptional trade.

My thoughts exactly. You can train any chimp to cook in a kitchen. Trust me I do it all the time, and sometimes I think actual chimps can follow my instructions better than the line-cooks I get. I can do any job in a hotel. But none of my staff can do my job.
