Never in my life have I been more pessimistic about the future of this great nation as I am today. The fall of the American Republic began in earnest last night when 60 Senators opted to nationalize one sixth of our economy.

The Pledge of Allegiance is un-American, argues Michael Lind on Salon. In a republic, the people should not pledge allegiance to the government; the government should pledge allegiance to the people. “We owe each other an obligation to obey the rules that we, directly or through elected representatives, have mutually agreed on,” Lind writes.

Childhood, says the Children's Encyclopaedia, is a time of innocent joy, to be spent in the meadows amid buttercups and bunny-rabbits or at the hearthside absorbed in a storybook. It is a vision of childhood utterly alien to him. Nothing he experiences in Worcester, at home or at school, leads him to think that childhood is anything but a time of gritting the teeth and enduring. J.M. Coetzee, Boyhood...
