Cool Hunting
Jennifer Government by Josh Rubin
Max Barry has written a genius satire of the a not too distant future where American capatilism has taken over the world. Government is privatized, the Police are for hire, the NRA is publicly traded, people take theire employer's name as their last name, and the true war is between the loyalty programs.
