This report, like so many others lately, take advantage of America's hard times to slander and try to degrade the true American experience.
I say to these people and all who feel that America is such a "terrible place".... Go to another country and live there!
We don't need anybody here that doesn't agree with freedom and patriotism. We don't need anyone that slanders our great country, only to take advantage of its opportunities!
Have you ever noticed how the slime of humanity hurries to kick the ones that fall?... Spit on the needy, while praising the dictators? ... Well, that's what THIS is about.... UNGRATEFUL POLITICAL BASHING!
I enjoyed listening to the different observations and reflections of the mostly male voices in this piece. Of course, I happen to agree with much of what’s being said about America’s country’s warring, controlling nature, including the culture’s insatiable need to consume and then some. Thoughtful quotes from Norman Mailer, Mark Hertsgaard and Allen Ginsberg frame a series of voices, some of color, whose interesting insights and reactions provide food for thought, especially if you see the world differently than the speakers in this piece. Fear is always worth examining since it’s at the heart of so many of our actions, and this is indeed a nuanced journey into the topic. That there’s no attempt at balance is somewhat of a relief given the narrowing definition of what it means to be patriotic these days. This would be perfect Sunday or evening programming.
