I agreed with all the badness in her song.  She sang as if the special quality of her voice would wring the dark ignorance from the world. She sang as if the sound of her voice, and her voice only, would change the chemistry in all other brains and the people connected to them.

She was asked if such and such would answer the problem. Her answer, “NO.” The folk singer was offered two more solutions.  She answered with distain each time.

“Well then, do you have an answer?” she was asked. “I’m not interested in fixing problems in this country. My only job is to tell you how bad yours are.”  nancymauerman.com
