“Inside French Health Care” is especially hilarious and revealing.  I found it when conducting research for an essay and it was probably the best source I found. Also, it should be noted that the “Santaland” excerpt doesn’t do the full story justice.  Read it in its entirety in Barrel Fever!

I’m determined to stay here at some point in my life.  It is beautiful, and environmentally conscious. Note the organic spa, ozone infinity pools, and homegrown fruits and veggies.

It is January and I don’t think I have ever felt more exhausted, though I suppose I’d better get used to it because college is bound to be worse.  A sobering thought indeed.  Lately I have noticed that life is almost exclusively about work.  Your parents work tirelessly to ensure that there is enough money to pay for your academic expenses, and when you are old enough to realize...
