"The Burpee as a metaphor for modern American Economic Society" 

If the burpee is a metaphor for modern American economic society, the flop is like the crush that many felt when the bottom dropped out.  The rebound is sloppy and hyperextending, similar to the bail out efforts. The jump is minimal, like the recovery thus far. In conclusion, the burpee is difficult, like the road to recovery we have ahead of us. Like the threads of the first flag sewn by Susan B. Anthony, we the American people will join together as one tapestry to stand up and prevail.
