Leave my love of Jersey Shore alone

You know you love it.  We all know the cast of Jersey Shore is moronic, likely 'roided out, and devoid of employable skills, yet we keep watching.  Personally, I think we should be grateful.  We live in a society that has climbed so high up Maslow's hierarchy that we can afford to put a bumpit-rockin' troll behind the wheel of an Escalade.  Is there any better commentary on discretionary income  and time than that?  Everyone with a cable box helped support this, and let me tell you, the truly down and out do not have cable.  By international standards, "poor people" don't have TVs or electricity for that matter.  Until we go back to be a society dependent on rabbit ears for our entertainment, the end is not near.  So fist pump/bump with your bro/significant other, and raise your big gulp to Jersey Shore.  As uplifting as "Yes, we can" was, I think "Because we can" is much more American.
