Go bottom

Here is how this CD came to be.

1060s slogan: “MONEY IS NOT WHERE IT IS AT”


 

My Quest:

 In the sixties I went to San Francisco to `be a hippy.' I felt that our society was not working for the majority of people and that some changes had to be made. At the time talk of this was everywhere, but the center of it seemed to be in Frisco, if any action was to be taken as far as social improvement was concerned I thought it would start from there, plus people there seemed to be having a LOT of fun, so I tidied up my affairs and left. I `dropped out' of the establishment. In Frisco I party’d on dude for as long as I could take it. There were people giving speeches about our flawed social system everywhere. Although, there were some nut cases many were, like myself, serious seekers. Many were very knowledgeable -- sharp people. I got around the country and met many social change types, which usually had one of three objectives.

 

1] Some wanted to split from the system they despised, and live happily ever after with like-minded people in communes.

 

2] Some wanted to change the system from within it via electoral reform et cetera. I did not join this group as I felt that any changes made could and would, after a few years, simply be reversed by a few pen strokes. That is what has happened. (IMF -- GATT – MAI)

 

3] Others sought an end to the current system and the building of a more equitable one. Decades later, without a plan, those who wanted to replace the system became part of the fix the system group.

 

Oh yeah my quest:
I felt that a REALISTIC PLAN for the day to day operation of our country was a must. No group seemed to have one So, I went on a quest to see if anyone did have a plan.” By this time I loved everyone and was very interested in what my fellow humans were up to. Throughout my life I have tried to spend some time with as many different types of people as I could trying their life styles on for size. Although I enjoyed success many times, well none seemed to fit me. I remained just another hippie to which the establishment at times took exception. I am not a loner I took some time off from my quest to be a husband and a father.

 

Oh yeah! I found the plan it had already been devised years before by other scientists! So I joined Technocracy Inc. an Organization dedicated to the preservation of this social design and after 25 years of study I can say that this plan is what we have all been looking for. I have been truly astounded, time and time again, in that this plan embraces and will achieve the goals of most if not all socially responsible causes. I am the one that put the first copy of this plan onto the www.

 

Yeah my quest was successful but when I tried to let the others know that there was a usable plan well I could not as odd as it sounds find them. Those who were socially active were devoted to a cacophony of laudable endeavors such as, the stopping of wars, bettering the lot of those on other continents, harassing people for enjoying a cigarette, opposing the NAU programs, trying to lower the amount of carbon dioxide that is given off by whatever in order to forestall solar driven global warming. Some of the others who were socially conscious in the 60s were dead, some were damaged, and many had given up. Others had blended into the establishment and were enjoying personal prosperity, many were living happily in rural settings I have been around and those who are well situated and living a comfortable life seem no longer to want REAL CHANGE in the social system I would not go so far as to say they have sold our but… ..

 

FWIW:
In the 60s I saw the astounding power for social change of the North American grassroots people since then I have seen it wane until they are no longer an effective force for social change so the change to a more equitable method of social operation will have to proceed without them it looks like this will be our first ever top down social revolution and the future is friendly
