Forget the fear mongering, for as long as I have been alive the fear rambling of the mass mainstream media has been rumbling. I dont have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. Its a depression. Everybodys out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickels worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and theres nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and theres no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if thats the way its supposed to be. We know things are bad — worse than bad. Theyre crazy. Its like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we dont go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I wont say anything. Just leave us alone. Well, Im not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I dont want you to protest. I dont want you to riot — I dont want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldnt know what to tell you to write. I dont know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first youve got to get mad. [shouting] Youve got to say: Im a human being, god-dammit! My life has value! So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: IM AS MAD AS HELL, AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I want you to get up right now. Sit up. Go to your windows. Open them and stick your head out and yell - Im as mad as hell and Im not gonna take this anymore! Things have got to change. But first, youve gotta get mad!...Youve got to say, IM AS MAD AS HELL, AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE! Then well figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first, get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: IM AS MAD AS HELL, AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE! It is time to wake up and take action, there are others ways society can thrive, there are other economic systems that could work that do not involve the fraudulent system of paper money IOUs to corrupt banking empires.
