As much as I love martinis, that's my favourite Vonnegut book.

Goblin and the other wizard whose name I'm forgetting are great. Always loved Croaker and Lady, too.

This year is when I'm done with both my degrees, but not done with learning. This book so far is very good, and extremely well written considering it's done by an academic. Recommended for anyone with an interest in economics

You doubtin my French pronounciation? Did you know I made a French gangster rap song for a presentation in high school? Included shit like "we will cut off your dick if you create problems". I got a low pass on that assignment

We would have been friends in high school. I wrote an eight page essay on The Grapes of Wrath in rhymed iambic pentameter. 3edgy5me.
I also got a low pass (filter) grade.

That is actually more impressive. Less gangster, but more impressive

Acurate!
If you guys are interested in economics, be sure to check out Jacques Généreux and Jacques Sapir who are in my opinion truly impressive heterodox macroeconomists, albeit very different. As for Piketty, let's just say I think he's a far better economist than politician
