Positive Paul: Good evening Negative Nate, how ya doin?

Negative Nate: I'm pretty boss, just thinking about the wide spread hysteria over communism. People are accusing people left and right of being communists for no good reason. Have you heard of that crazy McCarthy guy who accused 205 state department officials of being members of the communist party with no evidence.

Positive Paul: But that's not that big of an issue when you compare it to the cookin' economy. The war has left us with a boss economy! Ya dig?

Negative Nate: No I do not dig, the economy is grody, 1 in every 5 Americans is in poverty. And we have Mexicans illegally crossing the border left and right and being taken advantage of by their employees.

Positive Paul: Well car and appliance sales have skyrocketed. It's cool to have the latest dishwashers and cars on the market.

Negative Nate: That may be true but our country is also going through the horrible embarrassment of letting the first satellite go to the Russians.

Positive Paul: Yea but by the looks of it we are catching up and sure to wail along in the race and take the lead soon enough. The government is putting a lot of money into the space program. Have you seen all these families moving to the suburbs, its like the American dream out there!

Negative Nate: Yea you are leaving the poor behind in the cities to fend for themselves!

Positive Paul: Psh, why should I care about the poor, I'm going to be living the good live in the suburbs soon. My family and I will be able to hang around our TV! And I will have a safe environment to raise my children and they can go to great schools.

Negative Nate: Well you're wife will still probably not be able to get a job, the only thing she can hope to ever do is be a nurse, teacher, or work at an office. Besides you are just a conformist, following the crowd.

Positive Paul: Gotta go

Negative Nate: Bye
