Being of course the total nerd that I am, I had one too many glasses of sparkling wine and decided it was a good idea to read this paper by Donald C. Hodges on Plato's Republic while I was in this Bacchanalian state. Next thing I knew, I was on Amazon buying books left and right by authors like Hodges and Chomsky before I realized I was racking up a 300 dollar bill on my post-Christmas budget and was thinking that I could simply charge all of this on my credit card and not worry about it until next month. Luckily I came to my senses and closed the browser before I hit the "Process Order" button.Moral of the story: When you're drinking, don't read papers that analyses post-capitalist societies: Just go out and get a life. However, I do feel confident that most people don't have this problem...

It's probably good that you're not signed up for one-click purchases, but in not doing so, you're shirking your responsibilities of consumerism in this capitalist society.
