Even if you revolted, America, you're still rather English. You're colonial and you're obsessed with the way things look. The patina may be shiny but isn't there a fair bit of rot underneath?
And instead of Countesses and Lords, you've got Rockefellers, Roosevelts, Kennedys and reality TV stars. Lord, your class system is a mess. I wonder who will want to be seen at this 'show'?
Probably me. I certainly wouldn't miss hot pilates for the world.
