    Hard to tell from the first comment whether it is a criticism of the taste involved in the posting or an “Amen brother” comment on how pervasive are the feelings of despair in this land because of the growing social and economic inequities of which the thoughtful reader is reminded by the irony of this deliciously satirical piece. If the latter, good. If the former, well, try re-reading it.
