I'd recommend 'The Electric Kool - Aid Acid Test' by Tom Wolfe. It satirizes the counterculture movement of the 1960s, especially the hippie culture and their use of drugs. It gives a vivid and often satirical view of that wild era in American history.

Well, 'Candide' by Voltaire (again, not strictly American but highly influential on American satire). It's a very humorous take on the idea of optimism in the face of a cruel world. Among American novels, 'The Crying of Lot 49' by Thomas Pynchon is a complex and humorous satire on various aspects of American society including consumerism and paranoia. 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' by Hunter S. Thompson is also a wild and humorous satire on the counter - culture and the American Dream gone wrong.

Also, 'A Modest Proposal' is short and to the point. It shows how satire can be used in a very powerful way to make a social or political statement, even if it's in a rather extreme way.
