    No strippers, no private jets, no shiny cars/bling or million dollar studio production.
    A man with three dogs and a deer stand screaming a message. People are starved of authenticity and truth. That's why this song has captivated the world.

      I should have clarified more in the video what I had in mind when I said that the governent wasn't looking out for minors: They are more than okay with allowing all of the obscene sex education and gender reassignment ideals to be pushed onto kids that are too young to understand it. They're also okay with allowing pedophiles and groomers to continue to operate, more so than they are passing any legislation to ban those events / parades/ groups etc. , and helping to safeguard the kids.

    There is a huge difference between the good years under Trump and then the last 3 years. Wage increases are down, cost of goods is up, and the value of the dollar is down. So working people feel it - their pay won't buy what it did just a few years ago. The government always tries to fix inflation on the backs of the working class.

    Anthony Oliver has an album. Rich Men North of Richmond is #1 download on ITunes and #1 country song on ITunes. In addition, he has the top 3 downloaded songs on ITunes and 4 songs in the top 10 country songs on ITunes. Yesterday he turned down an $8 Million dollar recording contract from a recording company because he doesn't want his music, or him, controlled. He is just a farmer who also works at a factory in the Appalachia who wrote a relatable song and had the guts to say the quiet parts out loud!

    He was a regular guy 7 days ago. And 7 days later, he has about 20 million views and hes number 1 song on many diff platforms. Millions all over the world are watching his songs now. And ive watched men and woman cry. Hes gone MAJOR VIRAL. MSN is attacking him of course. He just wrote his life story on his fb page. Its public. And he turned down many record deal offers as well. He explains why. He doesnt want fame or fortune. He writes songs to help with his alcoholism and depression. Hes humble and wize and poetic. He is also very awake. He has other songs. The one called "ive gotta get sober," will haunt you. Just him sitting in the woods, on his land, with his guitar and recording himself w his phone. It is prob one of the most powerful songs ive ever heard. There are thousands of reaction videis. People are compiling clips of reactions together. He is everywhere!

    It's a Gretsch G9220 Bobtail Resonator guitar. The metal front plate gives it that guitar/banjo sound. He's talking about coal "miners" and the "minors" on Epstein Island. The line about Fudge Rounds (which are made by Little Debbie company and are very good but 300 calories for something that will fit in the palm of your hand) is a different issue than the young men putting themselves in the ground. I think he's talking about these veterans who are struggling with lifelong injuries and PTSD and committing suicide because the Veterans Administration is totally failing them. Just look at how many of them are homeless. I'm an old lady who remembers Vietnam. Those guys were treated horribly when they got back. We're still not taking care of our vets. They have more than earn the absolute very best care there is.

      I had interpreted it as looking out for the minors by banning and prohibiting the further activities of groomers and pedos etc. and actually safeguarding the kids, rather than participating in it themselves and protecting the regulars who frequent the island instead.
