> Rudderless  - James Howard Kunstler - 
Kunstler begins by condemming the activities at Penn St., and rightly so, but then makes the illogical (normal for him) leap to condemming American in general. He said:

"The intersection of America's fake warrior culture of football with the nation's fake moral and ethical culture is instructive."

Apparently the problem is the largeness of the insititution itself, Penn St., and therefore of ALL large insitutions. He said:

"Remember: institutions, just like living organisms, often reach their greatest scale just before they go extinct."

And his usual refrain: "Every new day that dawns lately gives further proof that we are a wicked people who deserve to be punished."

Kunstler is becoming more and more like a modern day avenging Savonarola than an intellectual. He is laying the groundwork for the burnings to come --- and they probably will. Burn all industry, banks, corporations, governments, schools, and return to a world made by hand, and ruled by....who?
