American flags wave from a lot of antennas, these days. Back in the 1960's, bumper stickers and window decals proudly declared "Love It Or Leave It" , implying that if you don't love America exactly like the guy driving the car you should "get the hell out of Dodge". Unfortunately, such attitudes are still alive and well, today. I painted this wasted Cadillac as a metaphor for where such thinking has taken us. We put business interests ahead of environmental and social concerns, we're in debt up to our necks again, and style is valued way ahead of substance. Heading hell-bent down a bumpy road, we may be headed for a total breakdown.
