      Only power the ‘governments’ have is in your imagination 😏 No fear 😊 just break free of the programming.

      You can be certain, the government is afraid and that's why they keep pushing certain laws and regulations. If you are a law abiding person you will fall in line and that's what they count on. The people who have a differing opinion are silenced and feel like just a cog in the system. Even people in politics who want to do what is right will lose their support if they don't fall in line. People are strong armed daily.

      LYRICS
      [Verse 1]
      I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
      Overtime hours for bullshit pay
      So I can sit out here and waste my life away
      Drag back home and drown my troubles away
      [Pre-Chorus]
      It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
      For people like me and people like you
      Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
      But it is, oh, it is
      [Chorus]
      Livin' in the new world
      With an old soul
      These rich men north of Richmond
      Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
      Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
      And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
      'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
      'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
      [Verse 2]
      I wish politicians would look out for miners
      And not just minors on an island somewhere
      Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
      And the obese milkin' welfare
      Well, God, if you're five-foot-three and you're three-hundred pounds
      Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of Fudge Rounds
      Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
      'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
      [Pre-Chorus]
      Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
      For people like me and people like you
      Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
      But it is, oh, it is
      [Chorus]
      Livin' in the new world
      With an old soul

      'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end

      Unfortunately its not a new phenomenon :(
      "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.."

      The corrupt US embezzlers took over Canada in the 80s. Here is the MINIMUM we need to know in order to end the reign of corrupt sociopathic money ADDICTS who have been embezzling government money for decades, who are totally derelict in their duty and unfit to govern:
      Remember Henry Ford said that there would be "revolution before tomorrow morning" if the people know how the money system actually worked?
      Well, the corrupt sociopaths in power know that government money can be issued IN ANY AMOUNT for anything that is physically possible, and they have arranged scams for decades to EMBEZZLE that money!
      The major one is "privatization", where they pretend they will run something better than the government and "like a business", but this scam is designed so they can bill the government ANY AMOUNT, providing massive exec salaries and insanely high profits. Wall Street firms fall over each other to invest - so do most Congress (or Parliament) members - when these entities are put on the stock market, because they know that profits are guaranteed via fiat government money.
      They all know that government money is NOT OUR TAXES, and that countries that issue their own currency do NOT have an actual "national debt" that the liars love to fearmonger us about, etc. We need to know what they want kept hidden from us.
      The US has been taking over countries since WW2 to do this embezzling scam and has built a corruption cartel of many lapdog countries; the liars demonize any leader who does not submit, to manipulate public opinion so we go along with the coups, invasions, assassinations, etc. The US also directs the WHO, created the WEF, and monolithic entities like Blackrock, Vanguard and others got so big by participating in the embezzling globally! We need to see the BS and FIGHT the lunatic money addicts and their inhumanity.
      They lie us into wars & then embezzle most of the war money through "privatized" war companies, incarcerate people to enrich themselves via "privatized" prisons. "Privatized" healthcare enriches insurance companies and related companies & investors, another corruption scam where they get torrents of government money but do NOT spend it on the healthcare people need.
      Vax companies and the digital ID systems to subjugate us are also privatized! So are all the entities to track and control us that the liars pretend are to "help the climate": social credit, ESG, carbon tracking, digital bank currency, 15-minute cities and more. The scheme was to get TRILLIONS from many governments FOREVER while ensuring we could not rise up to stop their corruption, tyranny and inhumanity. (Pretending there is not enough energy, oil, food is how they will try to force us to get those digital IDs - they will say it is so we can get our "rations" and UBI etc to try to survive.) This electronic prison to subjugate is being finalized, so time is running short for us to expose them and stop their plans for us.
      They use cloaking terms like "private" prisons, "for profit" healthcare, "public-private partnerships", etc, because they know that there is public backlash against privatization; we should always push back and use the CORRECT term when they do this. Currently, public education is being privatized by calling it "school choice" and "charter schools".
      The lunatic money addicts in power lie, destroy and KILL for more "money fixes". They are totally derelict in their duty and UNFIT TO GOVERN and should face charges of dereliction of duty, violating the Constitution, embezzling federal money, crimes against humanity, violating the Nuremberg code, war crimes and more.

Currently, public education is being privatized by calling it "school choice" and "charter schools".
      The lunatic money addicts in power lie, destroy and KILL for more "money fixes". They are totally derelict in their duty and UNFIT TO GOVERN and should face charges of dereliction of duty, violating the Constitution, embezzling federal money, crimes against humanity, violating the Nuremberg code, war crimes and more.

I have almost tears in my eyes watching these videos, because people in all countries feel the same and are deeply touched. The MSM try to divide us ... Oliver Anthony unites us. . . . .

    Us normal people are actually in it together. The majority of politicians are intentionally gaslighting you to make you feel crazy and keep us all quiet so we don’t get labeled crazy. I cannot believe that we treat our veterans worse than illegal aliens. They have found for our country and our personal safety and we leave them in states of emotional and physical distress that could be considered almost torture. Many of the “compassionate” political moves are anything but compassionate. I am just so happy this song and message is so clear and resonates with literally the entire world. I don’t know what difference it will make long term but i hope it does. I am also from the midwest steel belt but very close to chicago.. so i completely understand and empathize with your perspective. I love that you are so open about it. The mainstream culture is basically the bread and circus from the Roman empire. Distract the population with entertainment so they don’t think too hard about their miserable existence.

    The last time I saw a story teller just stand play their guitar and sing from their soul with no gimmicks or fancy backing about the desperation of living in abject poverty and trying to escape it was Tracy Chapman in her song Fast Car. She became a super star because it resonated with so many people and she was the real deal. Oliver / Christopher has taken it even further, exposing the dark side of our men and women in suits rulers who have sold their souls and wish to crush our spirits. That is why this is an across the board smash hit, he sings the truth from the soul and has brought the evil ones into the spotlight of the masses. God is speaking through this man with the Holy Spirit and everyone can feel it, that's why we cry when we hear this song and we have to hear it over and over and over and over.

    While the 2020 presidential candidates spent a record $5.7 billion total between them, congressional races saw a stunning $8.7 billion in total spending. Nine of the 10 most expensive Senate races ever occurred in the 2020 cycle. Wow that could buy a lot of fudge rounds. Of course it would barely put a dent in our American annual military budget which already consumes roughly half of the country's discretionary budget - more than $630 billion.

      @DeathDealerization 11 месяцев назад

      You want to cite numbers? Ok, deal with this reality, in 6 months, 80% of the Federal budget will be spent on DEMOCRAT welfare/entitlements. That means the massive Defense budget you are crying about...is merely part of the 20% that is not entitlements. Take 5 seconds to conceive of that.
      Discretionary? Who decides what is discretionary and what is not? We do. The people. The idiotic notion that we can't reform/change/reduce ANY spending: is exactly how we got to 80/20 in the first place.
      Don't waste our time arguing against that fact. Regardless of what you say, whenever you get done talking, 80% will still be true. So, how shall you proceed? Until you accept the fact that the Defense budget is NOTHING compared to Democrat socialist spending? You're not a serious person.
      ALL the rest of the Federal budget has to exist in the 20%, including things like school lunch, teacher incentives, and whatever else you might want to spend $ on, because DEMOCRATS refuse to reform any of the 80%, even with documented, easily observed fraud in the $BILLIONS continuing year over year. That is exactly why 5'3", 300 pound losers get welfare money to pay for their fudge rounds. And, maintaining the metaphor, we are spending a hell of a lot more on fudge rounds, than we are on missiles.
      Now that you're properly informed: you face a choice, don't you? I'll leave it to you to decide, since:
      I am a real American, and thus I neither feel the need or claim the authority to make your choices for you. That's what leftists do. I do the opposite.

Young people aren't necessarily choosing to become political early, they're being forced into it.

    LYRICS
    [Verse 1]
    I've been sellin' my soul, workin' all day
    Overtime hours for bullshit pay
    So I can sit out here and waste my life away
    Drag back home and drown my troubles away
    [Pre-Chorus]
    It's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
    For people like me and people like you
    Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
    But it is, oh, it is
    [Chorus]
    Livin' in the new world
    With an old soul
    These rich men north of Richmond
    Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
    Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
    And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
    'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
    'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
    [Verse 2]
    I wish politicians would look out for miners
    And not just minors on an island somewhere
    Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
    And the obese milkin' welfare
    Well, God, if you're five-foot-three and you're three-hundred pounds
    Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of Fudge Rounds
    Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
    'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
    [Pre-Chorus]
    Lord, it's a damn shame what the world's gotten to
    For people like me and people like you
    Wish I could just wake up and it not be true
    But it is, oh, it is
    [Chorus]
    Livin' in the new world
    With an old soul
    These rich men north of Richmond
    Lord knows they all just wanna have total control
    Wanna know what you think, wanna know what you do
    And they don't think you know, but I know that you do
    'Cause your dollar ain't shit and it's taxed to no end
    'Cause of rich men north of Richmond
