What is finished...is the idea that this great country is dedicated to the freedom and flourishing of every individual in it. It's the individual that's finished.

It's a nation of some 200-odd million transistorized, deodorized, whiter-than-white, steel-belted bodies, totally unnecessary as human beings, and as replaceable as piston rods.
