“God Bless America”
Well, it certainly needs it these days. Actually the Springsteen tune is also more apt than ever, for completely different reasons.
Btw, I like how they have a pair of twins in the two personal transporters, creating that illusion. Some fun, clever stuff.
“Born in the USA” is a anti-Vietnam War song.
Correct. Specifically, it's about veterans in need not being taken care of properly, a recurring theme these days in terms of many groups in need, the money typically being funneled away to the wealthy.
As was First Blood and maybe the first ten minutes of Rambo.

It’s like a less terrifying version of Frankie Teardrop by Suicide that you can get away with playing at parties.
There is no God here.
That's what the founders intended, but it later got injected by the religious right.
Chaotic Evil Voice in my Head: "Yell out 'Look, it's Seven of Nine!'"
