Reading Eric "Fast Food Nation" Schlosser's new (unfortunately titled) book, Reefer Madness, I'm saddened by the fact that this won't make the same kind of waves that FFN did. After all, it's a brilliantly reported indictment of "America's gross national pretense of virtue"* manifested in the shadow economies of marijuana, porn, and illegal labor.
