[a fool in paradise]

“This land is your land” was written as a response to Irving Berlin's "God Bless America". And Pete Seeger added even more antiamericanism to "This Land...". He also gruffed when (as a card carryign Communist) he was kept off a children's show in the 1950s. He does not deny his politics (and he was a die hard Stalinist in those days, took him 40 years to concede that Stalin did some very evil things) but he thinks he should have had access to kids to poison their minds and indoctrinate them.
