24. Stars and Gods by Larry Niven. I am disturbed by his multiple kudos to Ronald Reagan.
Sickening. This is the same Reagan who mocked the American people to their faces for what, fifteen straight minutes during his Iran/Contra (non)Apology speech. Much less his entire "administration". How fitting that one of the air traffic controllers who recently nodded off did so at Reagan Airport, considering what Reagan did to the Union and what the Repubs have been working to do to unions and the middle class ever since.

Fuck Ronald Reagan and his handlers. How insipid to find such over and over in a single place from someone I'd once thought a superior thinker. Especially after how many years of hindsight has been possible for him regarding Reagan?
