Can we have an essay sharing thread?

I don't care for short stories, but I enjoy a good essay, so how 'bout we share some of our favorites?

Here's a couple of mine:

The Soul of Man under Socialism by Oscar Wilde

Why Socialism? by Albert Einstein

The subject of these is pretty obvious by the titles, but if the one's you post aren't, please share the topic as well.
