there ya go. turn it around into an incredibly bitter and depressing essay, say you resent the fact that it must be about how "bright" your future is, and how it's just an extension of the knee-jerk reaction af any american in a power position to sweep any negative thoughts under the carpet of society and pretend that everything is perfect, and label anyone who complains as "un-american". go nuts with it, make it really well written, and if she marks you down, start a very heated debate, and be sure to include the rest of the class too. God I wish I was still in high school sometimes. assignments were soooo easy back then. *sigh*
