Overindulgence

In this world of gas guzzling SUV's, fast food restaurants, and suburban sprawl, we have lost sight of possibly the most virtuous term known to man: moderation. Over consumption is slowly killing America. We supersize our fries, trucks, beverages, breasts, biceps, and entertainment. As this nation wastefully consumes, we are distributing the hard earned wealth of our for-fathers amongst rapidly growing nations that will one day threaten U.S. economic supremacy. At this critical point in U.S. history, the citizens of our great nation must begin to make a substantial effort towards a more efficient use of our economic power. Through widespread conservation efforts, the citizens of the United States can and will protect our foothold as a major economic powerhouse.
