End of the Year Jeremiads

While awaiting the coming of the Prince of Peace, I seemed to have slipped into a bit of a craving for Old Testament-ish screeds that our society is a sick, empty shell of its former self and God is gonna be pissed. So I started with Empire of Illusion by Chris Hedges, recommended by my good pal MattC. I blew through half of that in one sitting, however, so I'm gonna order University in Chains: Confronting the Military-Industrial-Academic Complex, by Henry Giroux.
