I don't read too many short stories, but Ted Chiang writes consistently brilliant sci-fi shorts. Really fascinating stuff, takes an idea and explores it thoroughly. Check out The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate, Liking What You See: A Documentary (AMC developing series based on it, probably my fave), and Story of Your Life (was made into the movie The Arrival).

If we institute a universal healthcare system, fix our criminal justice system (includes demilitarizing our police), control our border, rebuild dying infrastructure (hello Flint), stop sucking off billionaires and big industry, and stop pissing our money overseas, America would probably be the greatest country on Earth, maybe human history.

I'm voting Bernie.
