This essay here caught my eye, considering Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" as a capitalist critique. I find it kinda convincing, myself.

Discuss.

Do you remember the first time you read "The Lottery"? Did it have much of an impact on you?

Yes, I definitely remember the first time I read it. It did make an impression. I can see it as a capitalist critique, I suppose, though I was raised in a "money comes last" household, so to me, that was just the way things are.
