Sample dialogue
Boys, it takes heavy, heavy sac to sign up for this contest. And you’ve all got it. You’re men now. As you all know, our country has been in a period of financial struggle since The War, and we did the very first Long Walk all those years ago to inspire, and to reintegrate the value of work ethic. Each year, after the event, there’s a spike in production. We have the means to return to our former glory. The infrastructure is in place for success. We have given the workers the tools. But our problem now is an epidemic of laziness. Not with all, but with many. You boys are the answer. The Long Walk is the answer. You are proof to those in the farms, factories and fields that if they have sac, work hard, and strive for greatness, then they alone can put an end to their financial woes. When this is broadcast for all of the states, your inspiration will continue to elevate our Gross National Product. We will be number one in the world once again!
