12. I was being facetious, of course

I just found it ironic:

Bruce Springsteen is furious at Wall Street, and he funneled that anger into his newest album, "Wrecking Ball."

The result is a collection of songs about the destruction of the American dream. You don't get too deep into that subject before you hit the financial crisis -- and Wall Street's role in it.


Did his anger metastasize before or after he assisted in the destruction of the American dream by giving Wal Mart exclusive rights to sell his Greatest Hits album in 2009? I find it difficult to take his message seriously when he has demonstrated with his actions that he is willing to sell out to the highest bidder regardless of the consequences. Just my opinion, YMMV.
