Reading...

Perfectly Legal: The Secret Campaign to Rig Our Tax System to Benefit the Super Rich -- and Cheat Everybody Else.  I can only read a chapter or so at a time because my blood pressure soars as I read.   Its truly shocking how the super rich with the complicity of the government have rigged the system and in the process stagnated or even set back the rest of us (which means 95% of the population of the US).
 
The last book I read (last week) was Genghis Khan and the Making of the Modern World, an excellent (if dry and academic) book about the Mongol conqueror's progressive policies and influence on western politics and cultures.  Like I've always said, Genghis Khan got a bad rap.
