Rated The Utopia of Rules: On Technology, Stupidity, and the Secret Joys of Bureaucracy 8/10

I didn't realize how much of this book would be a love letter to sci-fi in a weird way and yet, Graeber uses Star Trek as a metaphor in parts discussing how we never think about the bureaucracy of Starfleet. I have actually thought about this before, how Star Trek is surely depicting some kind of non-democracy society, but...anyway, this isn't as good as "Debt" but it's a worthy follow up in its own right.
