| Sam: | This poem makes me angry. The guy has no respect for America. |
| Tim: | In too many ways Amerika resembles Bablyon and is deeply mucked up. The nation is controlled by financial elites that aren't thinking about what's good for the planet – just their own dirty pockets. |
| Kris: | So why doesn't the author work to change the system? |
| Chris: | Many people have, but when cynicism and laziness go together, change becomes refractory at best. |
| Ted: | Ah, let's change dah compuscreen! Negative stuff makes me blue. I want someding positive & uplifting ta tune into . . . |
| Tim: | Sorry, this is not a religious broadcast. |
| Kris: | American iz screwed – many people already know that. Unless you have some good recommendations fer change, don't bother reminding me! |
