"Sixteen Military Wives" by the Decemberists

1. This song is about how America isn't fair. It kills troops and breaks down people, like the "celebrity minds". The anchormen talk about these things on the things like he doesn't care at all, like it an everyday thing.
2. The theme of the song is that America does what it wants to whenever it wants to. It doesn't realize the real heroes, like the soldiers. This is because we don't really care about the news, because we are not emotionally attached.
