Wait not for Roosevelt
It is my sincere hope that during this time of economic meltdown, environmental peril, and oil wars, individual or roving gangs of Americans will start smashing, slashing, and otherwise incapacitating leaf blowers. The beautiful autumn season, our immediate hope of a sense of serenity and natural order, is inevitably ruined by the incessant bleat and beating of the terrible machines, which exacts punishment on the ears of bystanders five blocks away, drawing ire and cochlear hairs out of the closeby, and they seem to breed like rats during October. They epitomize the my-yard-fuck-you individualism that has corroded American communities for years.
If action is not taken, Americans will probably turn on each other, and I think that this would be a worthy release valve, I think it would be on par with the WPA. "During a time of strife, we came together as Americans and rid the world of pestilent leaf blowers. Let it be known that this disease both began here and now ends here."
I'm serious, it's turning me into freaking Schopenhauer here.
