Replying to NS, I would like your suggestions!

Hey NSers, newfoolers, and humans!,

I am working on a project in which I compile 8 songs on a CD in response to the question:What's going on in America?  Not my favorite question either, but I'm doing my best.  

My thesis thus far is: Americans have lost track of a proper balance between work and play, this has contributed to statistical poor health in many areas of well being- from obesity to depression.  

What do you think of the thesis?  Reword? Start over?  I'm also having trouble finding songs to illustrate this argument. Any suggestions?  Movies that back this up would be helpful as well?  Any and all suggestions are genuinely appreciated and will be reciprocated with hugs and candy bars.
