 Communism is cool now.

But I just want unbridled capitalism and all my freedoms back.

Something like America in the 1800s - with oil and rail dynasties.

People making things and taking risks and being wild.

I want to start a business without needing permission from a parasite.

And a thousand acres of farmland with a home built by hand.

There’s a world that could exist.

But it’s suffocated by fear and an obsession with safety.

We’ve become sad and pathetic.

But I feel a revolution coming.
