Snow Crash is much more interesting than I first anticipated. I'm not generally a reader of science fiction, so I often forget that I actually do like reading it, when I get the chance/come across something. Snow Crash, for me, really is a scary representation of what the world could potentially become.
Snow Crash brings globalization and outsourcing to the next level. The U.S. economy is ruined, it's only production really being that of pizza. Obviously, it is generally satirical, but I don't actually think the whole pizza situation is too far-fetched.

(I know we're not necessarily supposed to read sci-fi as being solely a prediction of the future and since it's not really the future yet, I think it is still possible to see this book as a critique on our society today.)  read more »
