The problem is our debt based fiat monetary system. Inflation taxes poor and middle class and allows government to get huge funded by inflation, and swells asset prices of the wealthy. The rich get richer and poor get poorer. The solution is to end federal reserve, outlaw fractional reserve lending, and go back to gold and silver money. Stop inflation to stop the theft and shrink government.

The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, it's very brightly colored, it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." ~ Bill Hicks ~

My husband cried to this song! He’s a hard working man, and we have two new children. Trying to buy a house in the middle of drowning in this economy has caused so much financial stress. We’re there for each other and I help as much as I can, handling all our finances and trying to find a remote job to do while preparing for homeschooling. I can’t help but feel what he feels, and to know that everyone else feels this way too is heartbreaking. I’d say it’s time for a revolution, but as long as everyone feels like they’re drowning by themselves, nothing will be done. This song is bringing us all together, helping us realize we’re not alone, we’re not doing something wrong. It’s the government fucking us all while telling the working man he’s racist, homophobic, transphobic, bigoted and toxic. Everything is beating down the blue collar man. If we just punched back…

@@donjackson5522 I agree! In this economy I’ll definitely have to do some kind of work. As much as it stresses me out, I’ve considered taking in a couple kids of my working mother friends to babysit for money. And Greg’s job is a bit restrictive since it’s so physically demanding, he can’t physically do the job for more than 12 hours a day. I don’t wish that for him anyways. None of the elders in our family understand the truth of the economic situation, and have all refused to take us into their big empty homes, as much as they love us and talk about how they don’t see their grandchildren enough. We asked for one year, of paying half of their tiny mortgage, so that we could save up instead of paying 2k rent. Then we could get a house. But they’ve resolved that they want their alone time and aren’t entitled to help us. It’s probably because we’re not Christian, and we don’t parent how they did. That’s fine, that’s they’re choice. But now we’re drowning, and will be until this economy collapses. And then what? I hope it means we can afford a home and we won’t be affected. But will it affect his job, the jobs of my friends? There’s so much to worry about right now. It’s been hard staying away from alcohol and CBD, cause we know that in our current states we’d end up abusing both and avoiding the problem. We need to live through this stress for the sake of our kids.

@@Pellzor - Unfortunately, you are right. Our founding fathers told us to maintain an organized military of the people for the people and by the people. We weren’t just to keep individual weapons but have an organized structure in the case of a tyrannical coup. Don’t let our men who died or were forever maimed for this country become meaningless. Without a middle class, those with will completely trod down all of us withouts. We must maintain a buffer between these two variables or we will loose all of of liberty. The Constitution was framed to protect our God-given rights. Our rights do not belong to any government. Our government MUST be of, by, and for the PEOPLE - not corporations. Stand up Americans and fight for your rights before it is too late. The real power that should not be is mocking us with their duping delight smirks. Mandates of any kind are against the rule of law.

"I wish politicians would look out for miners. And, not just minors on an island somewhere." is honestly the hardest lyrics I've heard since Lil' Wayne said, "Real G's move in silence like lasagna." Just B A R S. 🔥🔥🔥

As a veteran and a father of 4 young men, this song shut me down. It broke open emotions I normally don't have to deal with. I fear for my sons entering this nation as adults in a time where they are blamed for every ill just because they are men. Truth speaks to truth, and this one hit me hard. I make more money at this point in my life than I've ever made before, and less to show for it than ever. The cost of everything has at least doubled. My work gets harder, responsibilities get deeper, and the rewards for it continue to diminish. We're at a time when we're more focused on mutilating children to suit their parents' polilitical ideology than we are on addressing the rates of suicide in veterans and young men. Our priorities are way off.

What a brutally honest song. For all the hurt, hardworking people of the world. The elites won’t want us united but this song is unifying without doubt. Brought me to tears. He’s singing for us all.

Heard it for the first time yesterday. Was having an awful day and this came on the radio and it was such a good reminder that everyone else is going through the same shit in one way or another.

Man its been a long time since we were gifted a song that is so universally relatable. Musical masterpiece. Its so rare to get art that stokes so much thought and emotion.

I had the same visceral reaction when I first heard it. Powerful. The anthem of our times.

I love seeing the different types of channels reacting to his music. This is proof that there are many people that can relate. ❤

It's so nice to see Oliver discussing this song longform for 18 minutes on his own personal channel and being such a down to earth person. Amazing how insanely fast tens of millions tried to politicize the song and he shut it down. We need more people like Oliver.

The amount of passion he shows as he belts his heart out grasps everyone's attention as nothing else in the music media today shows this level of emotion. But above all this is a song that everyone can relate to. We're all in the same boat here in america and we're the only one's that can fix this and come together as americans. Screw being divided.

this guy Oliver was a bit of a troubled soul dealing with depression and other similar mental ailments and alcohol issues. then one day it just broke him and brought him to his knees. he was never really a religious man but he made a promise to God that he would go sober if He helped him fulfill his dream. about 30 days later he had a friend invite him over to make a video to upload and this was the song recorded. as with about about 1-2 days of release he's blown up faster than a fat man at cracker barrel buffet.

First thing is thanks to Oliver because of him, I found you guys.

When this song was brought to my attention and I viewed it, It broke me as if it just happened all over again. The peoples voice is what this song represents.

He's already turned down an $8 million record contract. 2 weeks ago he was playing for 25 people. Stay independent is right. Protect this man at all costs!!!! 4 chords and the truth!!!!

You're FAR from awake if you think that 'presidents' have any power. They have NO power. It's all a huge game of fooling the public by having 2 'sides' play off each other and has been that way for countless decades. That's how they have gotten ahead decade by decade for longer than we've been alive. Do you not really notice that when in office Bushes hate Clintons and Obama, and vice versa, yet when1 day out of office they are all 'best buddies'. That's the game! ANY president that even tries to go against them will end up like JFK within a few months and certainly won't live longer than 2 years of his 4 year term. No amount of agents could protect a president. Presidents haven't called the shots ever since the presidency was fully controlled after JFK's demise, which was 60 years ago. You need to understand the very powerful UNelected 'cartel' that has been pulling the strings of all presidents for over the past 6 decades. Understand how they built up that incomprehensible power by studying how the 1913 Federal Reserve was created, along with all their other global institutions. The 'cabal/cartel' of very powerful players tried this same takeover back in 1935, but thankfully it was thwarted by General Smedley Butler. He was their key man and they thought he could be trusted to do their evil deeds, but he spilled the beans on the entire plot. Not much different operation that what's happening today.
