In the "old" Gilded Age, the barons of business accumulated vast wealth and influence from their railroads, steel mills, and banks. But today it is culture that stands at the heart of the American enterprise, mass entertainment the economic dynamo that brings the public into the consuming fold and consolidates the power of business over the American mind. For a decade The Baffler has been the invigorating voice of dissent against these developments, in the grand tradition of the muckrakers and The American Mercury. This collection gathers the best of its writing to explore such peculiar developments as the birth of the rebel hero as consumer in the pages of Wired and Details; the ever-accelerating race to market youth culture; the rise of new business gurus like Tom Peters and the fad for Hobbesian corporate "reengineering"; and the encroachment of advertising and commercial enterprise into every last nook and cranny of American life. With its liberating attitude and cant-free intelligence, this book is a powerful polemic against the designs of the culture business on us all.

Hotel-like comfort at home I bought these pillows from Beautyrest and they really exceeded my expectations. They are very soft but at the same time have good support, which helps you rest better throughout the night. They feel like luxury hotel pillows, especially because of their down-like filling. The jumbo size is perfect and they come well filled, they are not easily crushed. In addition, the cotton cover feels fresh and of good quality. They arrived quickly and well packed. After using them for several days, they maintain their shape and comfort. I definitely recommend them if you are looking to improve your rest without spending too much.

They aren't super firm; they are more comfortable than rigid 😊
Color: White, Size: King Size Set of 2
I bought these pillows, and honestly, I really liked them. They have a medium firmness that helps significantly with neck pain, yet they remain soft and fluffy without going flat during the night. They hold their shape well and have good loft, so you don't have to keep adjusting them constantly. They don't have any unpleasant odor right out of the package, nor do they slide around much inside the pillowcase something I really appreciate. Overall, they feel comfortable and are of good quality for sleeping in any position.

100% Cotton Pillows .
Color: White, Size: Queen Size Set of 2, Color: White, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
These pillows feel soft and fluffy without being too flat. They provide nice support for the neck and feel comfortable whether sleeping on your side or back. After several nights of use, they still keep their shape well and don’t feel too warm during the night. The set comes with two pillows, which makes it really practical for the bed.

Luxury Comfort and Perfect Support – Best Pillows Ever!
Color: White, Size: King Size Set of 2
I recently purchased the Serta Hotel collection Pillows White Goose Feather Down Fiber Gusseted, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice! These pillows are the perfect balance of softness and support — plush enough to feel luxurious, yet firm enough to keep my neck properly aligned all night. The gusseted edges really make a difference, helping the pillow hold its shape and look full even after weeks of use. The quality of the materials is excellent — the outer cover feels smooth and breathable, and there’s no feather poking out like with cheaper options. I also appreciate that they fluff back up easily after use, making the bed look hotel-perfect every morning. If you’re looking for comfortable, high-quality pillows that provide great value for the price, I highly recommend these. They’ve truly improved my sleep!
