Ammons book was not received very well by the class. I did share some of its sediments about its work. I agree that it was quite difficult to follow and quite confusing to understand. Part of the reason for this is that despite it being in a book format, it still is indeed is a poem. Much of the prose is difficult to dissect. He talks about many prominent issues that Americans face today. He discusses some science, a lot of Political Science, but I believe it still counts.
He brings up the prominent issue of Social Security within the book. He discusses its funding and how there is not enough money to continue to support it. He brings up medicare/medicaid as well which are also important and controversial government programs. It is very amazing how he could incorporate those concepts in the same poem where he brings up discussion about eating milk, beans, and eggs and which has the most protein.
