2.THE EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION: freedom, or the path to freedom for all our citizens. Frederick Douglass spoke up many times on this issue, a great many in the North did. And while Thomas Jefferson had slaves as America was founded and in its early years, he said slavery would ruin America and lead to its destruction if not abolished. How close we came to our destruction in the American Civil War. But a whole lot of people made a whole lot of beautiful noise to free all our people and extend the American dream to all citizens and save America itself. One way or another it involved everyone. This was our second period of 100% activism in America.

 

3.THE WORKERS RIGHTS MOVEMENT: the problem with every successful movement we’ve had by raising our voices is there wasn’t an effective way to keep those gains solid and progressing. And the next generation HAS NO IDEA what bad working conditions really are. Let’s take jobs, labor. This generation is just starting to understand what getting significantly underpaid for your work is like: you sink into debt and your standard of living goes down. And you need to get 2, or 3 jobs. That’s what I did in high school way back in 1976 with no skills yet because I was only qualified for minimum wage then and wanted to buy a car and go to college. Today the Labor Bureau says it’s 8 million which is probably only ¼ of all people holding more than one job because they do the second or third ‘under the table’ so they and their employer don’t pay taxes! So today I estimate 32 million Americans, about 1 out of 3 American households have 2 or three jobs to make ends meet. If 100 million are classified as living in poverty in America, that’s 1/3 of all Americans!

 

So much for education, and skills training. They forgot to really teach shop for 30 years in high school and now we have a building boom and are short on skilled tradesman: plumbers, electricians, and carpenters. Those are ALL very good jobs with decent pay where you work for 30 years and usually have a nice pension, versus nothing. Those are jobs that don’t go overseas or wages won’t decrease because you can get them in China over the Internet for 10 cents on the dollar. But you need training and the American education system forgot to teach those in a big way for the last 30 years, because corporate America set the education agenda. We had a 50 year long labor movement in America to get decent wages, a 40 hour work week, safe working conditions, some pathway to retirement. And today that’s all been dismantled by Corporate America and our government who they ‘funded’ our politicians to let it happen. That’s part of our national agony today, after very hard won gains, labor has no voice anymore and the workplace has sunk into almost what it was in 1880: an unacceptable subsistence wage master-slave relationship.

 

Really? Yes really: half of all jobs are minimum wage in America today. Wallmart underpays their employees so that they have to apply for, and qualify for food stamps! We the people subsidize Wallmarts record setting profits, that’s part of our growing national debt. And while I’m party neutral, meaning I think they both failed us terribly, here’s a tid bit that didn’t get reported. Hillary Clinton was an attorney for Wallmart. That’s the Corporate America/Politician connection that killed the American dream we are about to rebuild OVERNIGHT for every single citizen as we all add our names at RTDNOW.COM. This is why you have to read everything. You find out some pretty interesting things! Oh, and while I’m upset I was hoodwinked and voted for him, there’s never really been an honest choice, that’s why 120 million Americans, ½, don’t vote in presidential elections, I voted for Bill (the blue dress) Clinton. Sorry but he did that to himself, pardon the pun. He brought us NAFTA which was part of the globalist agenda. Which popped up in Hillary’s voters pamphlet page. Go re-read that. And compare it to what somebody wrote for the other knucklehead without a plan that got elected. He actually at least, even thought is was all fluff, talked to the people, what he stood for, or wanted us to believe he stood for. “I want to be the first woman president” didn’t say much other than I love America, I support issues all my life and am ready to work with our allies. It was VERY weak. All that after raising $800 billion for a presidential campaign. That is so bad after 50 years of public life not knowing exactly what you would do in office. At least she didn’t lie like the guy who lied to get elected. 

 

So before I digress too far, I have pointed out above how American labor (300 million of us hard working ordinary citizens) got sold out, a turning point in the American dream, and who did it. It accelerated wage stagnation and jobs leaving bringing us to the mess we are in today. To have a successful labor movement in America, most people, most of us, about 300 million, are workers today, all got involved, had their voices heard in one way or another. This was our third period of 100% citizen domestic, in America, activism.

 

 

4.THE UPRISING OF THE 1960’s ON COLLEGES ACROSS AMERICA. As this occurred, musicians sang about what they were seeing. Crosby Still Nash and Young sang ‘Four dead in Ohio’ after Nixon sent in troops?!? to Kent State College and they opened fire!?!!! That was the beginning of the end of Nixon. The Military on campus? Did he think he was Alexander Hamilton sending in two divisions to enforce the new federalist agenda and crush the Whiskey Rebellion? This was Nixon’s feeble and unwise attempt to enforce the new Corporatist agenda (they replaced early Federalists) laid out in the Powell memo to take American from its citizens and hand it over to the corporations.

 

That was the first and last time troops were armed in the streets when not asked for. College students risked life and limb to SCREAM about the injustice of race inequality under the law, to SCREAM about the injustice of the rampant American militarism in south east Asia, Vietnam, and our CIA led ‘coups’ all over the work. That’s why the world calls the CIA the Capitalist Imperialist Army. So we preach freedom then back dictators. What does that tell you? We want ‘order’ in the world where the world’s resources flow to American corporations, or else.

 

Now what if, what if, we started using American ingenuity today and invented a new world instead of strong arming everyone in a distant land to take their share of this world? That’s the mission for this generation. That’s the new American Dream engine I want to start with the RTDNOW Citizen’s Economic Bill of Rights, in every citizen, in every home, on every block, all across America. If you have something of value to sell, you don’t have to take what others have. We’ve lost all that when the government became militarized after we invented Nukes and promptly forgot it’s citizens in the 1960’s in a big way with Nixon, an American turning point.

 

National protests for almost a decade slowed that. But what happened then that caused the total loss of the American dream today? I’ll get into it in detail in Album 2 songs and podcasts, it was the Louis Powell memo. Louis Powell was Nixon’s attorney who he later appointed to the supreme court. What did old Louis do before being appointed? He wrote a memo to corporate America to encourage them to control national politics and the education curriculum.

 

And here we are 50 years later with no country. Factories gone, $25 trillion in debt with limited earning power, education a joke, most well paying career jobs gone. That was the other big American dream turning point, a bad one, Nixon and Powell, probably the biggest we will talk about again and again. Because they implemented their plan so well, stacked the supreme court with their cronies so well, that in 2010 corporation were made ‘artificial’ citizens with free speech rights which meant they could contribute to political campaigns. This used to be a prison sentence for paying off politicians.

 

Now with tidal waves of money in our politics they legalized that and in one ruling over threw our Democratic way of life, one person one vote no longer matters, and our Republican way of life. A Republic is supposed to be a nation of laws made by a democracy, of the people not corporations, for improvement of all society not a class of it like mega corporations. Not a corporate pay to play system, which is now the law of the land, that gives billionaires tax breaks and removes healthcare, which was NON-Profit before Nixon screwed that up and ‘deregulated’ it so it’s bankrupting us all. Deregulation is a code word for corporate giveaways so they can quadruple prices to us all. Regulation means we keep the billionaire from ripping all us ordinary citizens off at ever turn. The 1960’s was our 4th American period of 100% citizen activism. I’m leaving out WW2 for this podcast because while that was 100% citizen activism, it was foreign, not domestic.

 

 

LET’S TALK ABOUT THE 300 MILLION AS 1 MESS WE ARE ALL IN TODAY, AND WHY I WANT US ALL TO MAKE NOISE BY ALL ADDING OUR NAMES

300 MILLION AS 1 AT RTDNOW.COM

 

OK, I recounted some ancient American history, and more recent American history that is but a faint memory to most 20-40 year olds because they stopped teaching REAL American history as the Corporama took over the textbooks and curriculum of colleges. I deal with education in America in more detail in album 2: stay tuned daily! But when you put this all together, the American dream was dismantled and stolen by corrupted politicians that did not represent the 300 million ordinary hard working citizens anymore, only the wealth class making ‘donations’ and giving them lobbying jobs and ‘book deals’ after office. They put our American dream for 300 million of us ordinary trusting folk, they slowly put it to death!

 

Oh Adrian you’re so dramatic! Maybe in singing a few songs I am, but not here. I don’t think so, not here in text. We the real people, 300 million ordinary hard working American Citizens (I spoke about 2-3 jobs for 33% of all American households) have taken it in the shorts badly for the last 3 decades. That means illegal blows that caused us to wince and lose things while they didn’t get penalized. We the ordinary American citizens are working longer and harder that we have since 1900 the period before America TOTALLY COLLAPSED the last time and couldn’t restart its American Dream engine, because it was wiped out by billionaires in the three decades before. Just like now, just like today. The parallels are BOLD AS DAY if you want to see them. And it means we are a decade or two from total collapse again without bold action like 300 million as 1 adding our names to implement the RTDNOW CITIZENS PLAN to restore everyone’s American dream and save America. You want warnings before the house burns down? This rock opera is it! I made 100 songs so you’d hear the sirens going off!

 

 

Put it all together and here’s the mess we are all in 300 million as 1:

 

1.Politics are totally corrupted for decades by money in politics. The RTNOW Plan gets money out of politics.

 

2.The American dream engine of long term well paying jobs is almost totally gone. The RTDNOW Plan builds a new American dream engine in every single household overnight by changing economic policy.

 

3.Most Americans are working harder than ever, to survive! Some Americans hold 2-3 jobs to stay alive and pay bills which keep increasing, when there isn’t a real reason for it as delivery costs keep going down. Think about that. The RTDNOW Plan effectively gives every one in America a 50-100% pay raise by lowering their cost of living by 50% overnight and forever, with 1% home loans, and dwelling loans to reduce your rent by 50%.

 

4.Lack of healthcare is the governments plan to avoid paying social security for 100 million baby boomer retiring by letting them die, yes die, 10-20 years sooner than they should. This is no joke. We all know people who avoid going to the doctor because of cost. Their illness progresses then its too late and they and their families, and friends, suffer through their terrible death. Everyone over 45 knows 1-2 people right now this applies to. Read Adrian 2020 at RTDNOW.COM and the E-Orders. Those are my Executive Orders. One is about healthcare. All I have to do is spell out who is ripping us all off, who is killing our friends, to 300 million people who can all see ‘they are next in a few years’ and we will all fix the healthcare crisis OVERNIGHT!  We will all go to a dual Non-profit system for 300 million, and a for profit for the corporate elite. Let them bankrupt themselves not all of us.

 

5.NO PLAN: Lastly and most importantly, government, any politician has NEVER EVER put together any plan, any budget, anything like the RTDNOW PLAN to restore every citizens complete American dream, and by re-starting the new RTDNOW American Dream Engine, save America from total collapse. I AM the only one, unless they all copy me, with a plan to restore the dream of every single American citizen.

 

6.Write in my name, Adrian 2020 and I’ll implement the RTDNOW CITIZEN’S PLAN overnight!
