Why?

GREEDY AGENTS, 
FORECLOSERS ON THE RISE. 
BITTER DISAGREEMENTS, 
BEWARE OF SENSELESS DEMISE. 
TOTAL PRIVACY INVASION, 
INSTANT MESSAGE TEXTIN'. 
REFUGEE ALIENATION, 
BIG-BROTHER'S WATCHING. 
GROWING CHILD BIRTH DEFECT, 
THE WORLD'S IN QUAGMIRE. 
GLOBAL GREENHOUSE-EFFECT, 
RAGING FOREST FIRE. 
RECORD-BREAKIN' HEAT WAVES, 
THE OZONE-LAYER'S CRACKING. 
TRAFFIC OF HUMAN SLAVES, 
FREEMAN'S JUST WATCHING? 
FREE-ENTERPRISE ROBBIN' FOLKS BLIND, 
WHO'S THE REAL HUSTLER? 
SO-CALLED NEWSWORTHY GUIDE, 
MINDS FLOATIN' IN ETHER. 
GREEN-EYED GUERRILLAS, 
ALL-OUT PLAYIN' FOR KEEPS. 
VAIN INDULGENCE IN SPAS; 
USURY PILING IN HEAPS. 
MISSIONS BEING COMPROMISED, 
BY ARTIFICIAL INTELIGENCE. 
GOD-SEEKERS ATTACKED BY SURPRISE, 
MAYBE DOOMSDAY HAS COMMENCED.
