Working class Donny, foster child Finley, and the young Chief Spokane Garry--all exemplify the precarious position of America's youth. Another concerns the impact of capitalism. Homeless Viper Bugloss, squatter Peamouth, and the middle-aged Chief Spokane Garry--all speak to the effects of burgeoning commodification. Of final concern are crimes against the environment.
