Vonnegut does get high regards in philosophy circles. So does Palahniuk....sometimes. There is no such thing as tame and mellow in his stories and they are an full forced blow to the senses that's powered and fueled by the ones I mentioned and more. Like how wounds are typically approached in a Foucaultian manner, with the wounds being severe enough to require hospital visits, once over a mandible being blown off by a gun (the *****es in that book are so far beyond crazy I wouldn't be abke to keep up). Even a trip to the grocery store is an amplified Foucaultian journey into overwhelmed senses. Amd because Foucault is the primary influence even monkeys maturating at the zoo is something with a Foucaultian dynamic.
He's also so impressive he shocked me. And that's no easy endeavor. But he did it. So far on tilt I was toppled.

I know, I am being contrary to the poster in question..... tell him he is right.... and he gets a big head and then he is worse to deal with than usual

That's lying with statistics. What are the effective tax rates for the top and bottom.
