- We are out here on this Earth and surrounded with everything we need to live amazing lives. So why have we created, and continue to tolerate, a system that makes us work our whole lives earning money so we can pay for the privilege of living?

I’ve often said that it doesn’t seem fair that humans are the only species that has to pay to be alive.
So true. Aliens don't pY rent. But they come here and live for free
@@juneautumn3067 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Animals are homeless. U can choose
@@mick7922 animals aren't homeless. They're house less. But a house isn't their natural habitat.
We were given everything we needed to survive. We could walk through the land and find shelter and freely pick food from the trees and the ground. But, BUT, we as humans found some way to screw up what was so freely given us. We definitely "got some explainin' to do"
That's why I don't have kids.... I don't want them to suffer.
Good. Treat them the way you want to be treated. Don't bring them into a world that only pretends to value them. I salute you. 🫡
Antinatalism is beautiful
@@apolloniusbeitsman5444Yes, it is compassionate.
That’s The righteous thing to do
My children were born in the early 2000s. I feel bad for them
At 33 I have nothing to show. I used to feel like a failure, but now I don’t care anymore. As long I can eat 3 times a day and have a place to sleep I’m okay.
I'm 34 and got fired for the first time at 33. Became unemployed for the first time in my life and watched as all the money disappeared and being forced to simplify my life actually improved it more than anything else. Go figure.
I get jealous of birds because all they need to do is find a good stable branch on a tree and build a nest 🪹 and their home……and they don’t have to pay for airfare when they travel 😂
Yes they must laugh their pants off of us silly humans 😂😂😂
I bird watch all the time in adoration. They have the life for sure.
I envy the birds and cats as well. They seem to have such a chill lifestyle in comparison to us human beings.
Insects are probably the ones that secretly have it made because they could live anywhere they can fly and they can listen into anyone's conversation they want to.
Me too same here!! I watch the squirrels where I live and think y’all are so lucky! All you gotta do is be smart enough to avoid the cars in the road and you are good.
This is what has always bothered me. The need to constantly pay bills. We in America and other countries get punished for not paying bills on time. Alot of people that don't pay their bills on time is because they don't have the means to. An unexpected expense arises, yet the companies, corporations, banks punish those people by charging a penalty fee. This is disgusting. The greed is disgusting. They have alot already but want more and more and people are stressing, starving, suffering just to make ends meet.
You’re supposed to be saving while paying others’ mortgages, high premiums, high food costs, etc. The corporations are not expected to save for rainy days however, they can just go to the federal govt which will indirectly tax everyone through inflation to bail them out, making our rent, food costs etc even higher.
@@ShakaCthulu Sad but true..
@@ShakaCthulu Corporations are the largest donors to political campaigns and it's for a reason. This pretty much tells you who the government truly serves. Still fun to watch dummies trying to convince each other how their "favourite politican" is better tho
how they gonna punish us for not paying them for our own life like wtf lol.
You make a great point about late fees!
Money was the worst thing ever invented if you ask me. It tears families apart, strains relationships & lives are lost all because of a piece of paper that you cant take with you when you check out of here.
Agreed, 💯
I totally agree. With out money there would not be any billionaires because they'd never be able to work for or manipulate so wealth to their names.
So true. It does rip families apart. Greed becomes their God when it’s there to be fought over. Sad.
@@Asianimabong8573 Money is just a sci pp of control because we gave it a belief structure and trade resources for it. If the IRS was abolished along with the Machine it would not matter. No weight no worries just a Future without systematic bars.
I've always said this...the state you are born into (naked, homeless) is basically illegal and you have find a way to make money to pay for clothes and housing just to stay out of jail and then you have to keep paying rent just to live....just existing is called loitering, trespassing, or being homeless. Sad.
So right on
This whole situation is completely screwed up. And there's no realistic way to escape from it.

They’re literally working us to death. I can’t function anymore.
I was buying water from Walmart and this exact thought came to my mind. I felt like a jackass buying water….WATER 🤔
Like I mean really 😂😂😂
People mindlessly say "He / she needs to earn their living." So, people are implying that if you don't work, then you don't deserve to live. I've always hated that phrase. I've always thought it was crazy to pay to live and that you must pay to have your own car in order to have a job that pays a living. Everything is so messed up in our society. Profit is the ONLY soul sucking motivation.
Babies don't work, perhaps they shouldn't live because they did not "earn" it. Yeah, it's a ridiculous belief for ANYONE TO HAVE.
Facts, Money is the most important thing here, even human interaction requires it.
Wow so true about making a living hadn't realized that thanks
You tell it brother. America isn't a country, it's a business. Every single thing about this country is designed to separate you from money. It's that simple. We're watching you on UA-cam, which either has ads, or we pay in order to avoid the ads. It is insane, and I don't know where it all ends.
Well then, what can we keep separate from those in power? After all, everything has a price. We can refuse to give them what they want unless they give us what we want. And if we die, then they run out of people to exploit, and control, GDP shrinks, population shrinks, and then their power shrinks. THEY NEED US and they are scared of us learning this fact and exploiting it for all it is worth.
It ends with end stage capitalism and the implosion of empire. It's necessary but it won't be pretty.
It simply doesn't end. The reason it doesn't is because too many people are willing to overpay for more of their wants than just their needs.
It's called Capitalism . Not the best system , but best of the worst .
This world is messed up…we’ve really lost sight of what is important.
I’m so done with this world and what society has become. There is literally no point in anything anymore.
Feel the same ! Its a lot carry i just to want to be in peace
We are put on a planet where we are forced to live here, and then we have no say so to what lifestyle we desire. That’s what makes it all really depressing.
It has to be some sort of badly designed simulation, the whole thing is total bs,
Do you know what lifestyle you desire
@@nicolaslegut9271 To live in an RV park. To have more time in nature. To not worry about the big house or the most expensive cars. To only live with what I need rather than what society tells me I should want.
@@DetoxMyLifeWithTNicholsomeone finally said it 😭💔
@@DetoxMyLifeWithTNicholagreed same here.
It’s called GREED. You’re so right Tim!
@@lauravictorious4670 Amen, I agree.
You nailed it Jacqueline! Didn't John Locke say that no man should own more land than he could work by himself?!? I know George Orwell said in 'The Lion & the Unicorn' that nobody should make more the 10X what everybody else does. Leftist are quick to point out that in the 50's most factory owners made only 50X's what they paid their workers. See the works of David Greaber...'Debt the First 5,000 years'...Keep up the good work, we're all counting on you!
ya, and governments are in on it so, hence, nothing changes and it only gets worse
❗️❗️❗️❗️
I'm convinced greed is a mental health problem.
You are so absolutely right. I decided to live in my car: a 2021 Ford EcoSport, which is a compact SUV. It's very uncomfortable but I'm doing it. 65 and a half, newly retired. Haven't even gotten my first SS check yet. Living on my final payout which was 133 hours of AL. Almost out of money. Could never save any money. But I just couldn't do the workforce anymore.
Good luck to everyone.
living in car too..at 60...it's draining...always keeping an ear and eye open all night for police telling me to move on..at least we have a car...
I dont even own a licence
This world is all an illusion. Take care, be safe.
Bruh go steal some shit now
@@buttercup3ishrent a driveway so you can park your car peacefully
Nothing will be done about it unless a large enough chunk of us just stop participating in it....unfortunately that is hard to do when you aren't self reliant.
Yup, and unfortunately for various reasons, we can't really work together to become self reliant.
@@LaNoire27 So true...
I think about this quite frequently . I hate the thought of buying my existence.
Yes
It's amazing to me that everyone bought into this system. We humans, created time and money, and then spend our entire lives in a panic because we don't have enough of either. That's why I enjoy hiking and watching nature just do what it was created to do. Our ancestors truly messed this whole thing up.
I can't get ENOUGH nature these days
I live in a southeast asia country and everyone here has this mentality "It is what it is" about life struggles esp work/jobs. Whenever i talked abt this topic, they would always say "but thats all we can do to survive, pay the bills and eat. What do u expect?" And it kills something inside of me everytime. No one seems to get it. no one sees the problem in our society and work system.
(p.s. im not a fluent english speaker pardon my grammar).
Some of us see it but most who just comply keep it going. It's a slave system and will not change until enough people wake up and say no more. I'm not optimistic.
same in uk. people cant even call it what it is, slavery... but then you got to remember that there are a few lucky people that actualy have wealth and so they don't see a problem.
I view this problem as a spiritual one. I’m Christian (this is my world view not trying to proselytize). After the fall, human society became broken. Greed and selfishness began imbedded into most human culture. In the past, certain societies didn’t have luxuries (according to our definition of luxury) they survived, eliminated starvation and homelessness amongst their tribes. An example of this is the Haudensonee Native American tribe.
I opted out. That’s why I live in my van. My goal is to save as much as possible to retire at 55. I’m 40.
I’m trying to opt out too and I’m 24
Meanwhile, all the other animals are here continuing to live for free... And we boast that we have the better brains... It's actually embarrassing! 😅🙈 😂
Valid point. 🤦😂
People even pay to go to zoos to see the animals.
@@noreenebostick9593 😂 😂 😂 It's true! They bring in money by existing whereas we have to actively entertain people (or sell our bodies!) to bring in money! 😅 The "smart species", eh.... ?!
Most intelligent species on the planet my arse. I'm being completely serious.
Well, the animals would live here for free except that there are so many of us and we've taken over the planet leaving little to no space for animals to even exist.
I think everyone who hasn't been born into wealth has felt this way. I'm 71 and don't have any answers either. We simply endure, hopefully find a friend or two, someone to love, try find some peace in the madness of this crazy society.
These are the questions I ask too. It is sad to see so few people question the way society is. Like if I don't see the point of working a soul sucking full-time job, I'M the weird one 🤷🏻♀️
Same
Yes, what's the point? We need to be asking "What's in it for me?" Also, we need to be selfish and stop caring about the interests of those in power. They don't care about us, so we should stop caring about them. Let's make them pay a price if they want something from us. It's funny that they think we are the only ones who can be taxed. We can tax them in creative ways.
@evilds3261 There are a lot more of us then there are of them.
I feel you. I'm so done trying to make a decent living and keeping my mental health ok. It's a never ending game of - what do you agree to sacrifice to stay alive and have food on the table? And at each sacrifice, you need to make a new one. I tried earning good money and I did. Burned out. I tried to have a chill job and live simply. Well I am on edge/broke each time something unplanned comes up. And even chill jobs become stressful because when you do them right and stay, your manager gives you more responsibilities whether you like it or not. I'm literally at a stage where I wonder - why is it so complex to have just a simple life? I'm a hard worker, I don't have crazy dreams, I just want to enjoy my days, not take work home and look forward to tomorrows. It's like a game where all the combinations are wrong. And I tried so many of these fucking combinations. Life is becoming a lottery. With less and less winners.
Well said 💯
I never thought I'd be so glad to be old(er). I'm burned out too. So tired. Good thing I'm just a skip & hop away from retirement. I think I can. Scary stuff. The only people making enough money are the politicians.
so feel every word of this.
The only thing I can think of is be SELF reliant, it doesn’t solve all problems but reduces them. There is a sense of self satisfaction when you do it yourself. Now….as for money and humans, well we a re in a Babylonian money system (to live by man not by God) . The heart of man is as filthy rags, according to God. If you believe this, than there is your answer. Man kind will never solve hunger or help people without Jesus Christ in there hearts. For man doesn’t really care enough about each other, but to save face in public, they care. Human are not honest with themselves, they bs themselves every day! Anyway thanks Tim for letting loose! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Hang in there friends, things will get better soon.
This video isn’t about working for free. The video is about working and not earning enough to live. The current system exploits workers, does not pay them fair wages for their work. They earn money, but still can’t afford anything. He said it in the beginning: Wages don’t keep up with the cost of living. I’m working class too. All that work we working class people do has generated billions in profit, but those billions were mostly deposited in a few bank accounts. That’s why we have billionaires and the middle class is shrinking. We being robbed, y’all.
Bob Dylan has a song where he says, "some will rob you with a gun and some with a fountain pen." Says it all really.
Corporate America is destroying America.
You're describing a problem with the Keynesian model and getting into the macro-economics of imports/exports and productivity.
Wages do NOT keep up with inflation because of two primary reasons. The number one export in America is (US Dollars) and productivity continues to decline in an inflation based economy.
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477 I work in a hospital. All my productivity does is go up while my employer hoards billions in profit and refuses to staff the place properly to meet demand. Corruption and greed are a big part of the equation. Regardless of exports.
The issue I have with the system is that it eats you up and kills your soul. I don't think anything should be free, but things need to be made more balanced. No one working 40+ hours a week and live in abject poverty.
Especially essential things like healthcare, education & housing should be always affordable & accessible for everyone.
No one should have to slave away 20, 30, 40 years of their life to simply have shelter. The system makes having shelter so expensive & complicated. It's designed to enslave you for life.
Imo no one should have to work more than 40 hours a week! I know people that have consistently worked 50-60 work weeks over decades. That is insane
@@brianmeen2158 my uncle is still working multiple jobs at 70 years old and likely can't afford to retire. I also have a cousin that just retired at 75 years old.
Well, that's fine and dandy, but your post is lacking some macro-economic sense.
This is a Keynesian system my friend; permanent inflation and permanent growth.
When exports decline, along with productivity, and the US continues to export dollars in the form of loans; everything becomes devalued. This is why your wages don't keep up with inflation.
This is simple supply and demand in a Federal Reserve controlled economy.
If you want people to stop living in poverty having to work so much, then credit needs to be 'severely' constricted and productivity/exports need to increase. This will increase the worth of the dollar in the currency markets.
Giving people artificially low interest rates on debt only drives demand/inflation. Stop subsidizing people and this will cease to happen.
You know as a 30 year old man I've said this for years. It doesn't make any sense to me either. We aren't even living anymore, hust surviving.
It’s really disgusting that in the 21st century this stuff is still happening. Personally I think it’s because we have waaay too many narcissists running around the place.
They Capitalize on our laziness. We need to form Communities and help each other together we win!!
We’re not lazy we’re stuck and people aren’t united anymore bc we lost our identity with too much propaganda and immigrants.
And no one’s really taught any real life skills to be independent. We are all
Taught to be dependent on the system.
My friend died on Friday night at 23 and honestly I’m jealous he can rest in peace and be free from this world. I’m 21 and I can’t imagine living like this for the rest of my time here. 😪
I know you're all about positivity my friend, but make no mistake about it... We were born into a prison planet.
And yet the prisoners compete with each other to have a nicer prison cell and nicer orange jumpsuit.
💯
You impose the prison on yourself. Everyone has a choice.
@@katielowen Choice of what?
Face the doom. Yep. Cos this is all so predictable.
It is funny that humans created concepts such as inflation, taxation, rent, tolls and nobody is even complaining.
Exactly!
True and people talk about it like it's a science, it's just all an artificial creation to try and maintain order and control. It's a joke
Even when the prices go up, people still remain with their heads down. Unbelievable
It's important to remember "in the back of our minds" that THE SYSTEM is predicated on threats & fear from cradle to grave.
💯🔥🔥🔥
I’m 52 now and have been grinding away full time for many years. I was lucky to buy a house 10 years ago. Now, Rents are way up, and the Costs of Houses! How can the average working class family even buy a house these days?? Crazy times were In! Lots of Greed going on.
I’m feeling this rant! You tell ‘em. I bought my house in 2017. Initially, I wanted to pay it off before I retire. But now that I’m seeing insurance companies file for bankruptcy, raise insurance prices much higher than the cost of your house or just refuse to insure houses if they don’t like the area you live in… I’m thinking, why pay it off? I’ll just use my 30-yr mortgage as glorified rent control until something better comes along. This system is always changing the rules and it’s making it impossible to get ahead or plan ahead. Looks like the best thing to do with my hard earned cash is save it (cash or precious metals) Investing is a fool’s errand. Even my house is looking like a scam. I’m mad, y’all.
I fill you I just bought a house to move out of a rental house, I more than likely in 15 years sale the house and move in a cheaper part of Illinois since I’m a city worker I must live in the city
Your ahead of the game owning a home. It sucks being homeless and at the mercy of a heartless system.
It is a scam. Renting and buying are both scams. I just do what I can reasonably afford without being stressed out.
evil people rigged this system: all narcissists, psychopaths. One rotten apple can damage the whole bucket
Tim, your spot on here. I'm 59 and knew early on that this system was rigged, this sytem was bs. I also made a choice, sometimes consciously sometimes not, that I wasn't going to buy into it. Seems it has been my soul contract to be in opposition to it. I'm like you. I know we can do better, I want the best for all. Its completely unacceptable that in this system we are required to justify and "earn" our place to simply live in this life where we had no say being brought into. There is a very small cabal of psychpathic criminals who control this system for their own benefit at the expense of the majority. That needs to end and I hope I see it with what time I have left. This sytem has not worked for me and I'm looking forward to moving on because this human experience has really ceased to be enjoyable for me. I'm worn out, beat down, and simply done. Much love to all.
I’m 66 years, three months and 29 days as of my comments. I’m still living on this planet earth watching things deteriorate, self-destruct because of going against God. I did not make me or anything. God is in charge and sees all. Letting go and letting God do his thing is how I am. As long as God give me breathing abilities, strength, wisdom and all that he wants me to experience, I am grateful. Better later than in my earlier years to discover the truths as to how things are and has been. Since a little girl around 5 learning about former President John F. Kennedy getting shot, they made me look and think about life that much more being a young child. Music kept peace, harmony and balance within me. That ain’t never changed. While chaos is all around me, I’m dancing and singing and observing. What has not killed me has made me stronger, wiser and better. I’m going to my grave knowing that God is who I will face. If that is a lie, it ain’t my fault. Keep smiling and shining with the sun, moon, stars, and everything and everyone else. Why? Because it is great for mind, body and soul. Smiles

I think about this almost everyday Tim. The part i find most amazing, is that people actually agreed to live like this!!! Why?!
It makes me feel like we really dont have a choice in our life because the
decisions have already been made for us. It is INSANITY!!!
You're right. There really is no choice.
I wake up every day trying to figure this sh$t out!
I love how you discussed mental health. I suffer from depression and anxiety to a horrible extent, and I can barely even work at my shitty job, much less get out of bed some days. I definitely can’t afford therapy or medication, and I need to make more money in order to afford it. But I need therapy in order to get into a position in which I’m capable of making more money. So basically, I’m stuck making minimum wage, unable to fix my deteriorating mental health. I’m glad I can at least have internet access, and that I have great roommates though. I also have to say, I really appreciate these videos, because they give me much needed hope. Trying to stay positive is incredibly difficult for me, but I’m doing my best to at least try.
Stay strong, brother! We are all slaves!

Generation X and the generations after them are NOT better off than their parents. More and more people Are in fact realizing this and that’s why some people are waking up to not getting married and having children. It’s really sad 😞

I was just thinking about how wasteful these restaurants/supermarkets rather throw the food away than to feed hungry people.. this matrix is disgusting
Thanks for bringing this up Tim. Im fortunate to say that I haven’t paid rent since July 2022. I’m currently doing the WWOOF program, I don’t have to pay any rent, I just have to work my 20 hrs week of farm work (they don’t pay you for your work). We share a communal kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor shower, with my own private dwelling. And now I’m working part time at a bakery within walking distance to make money while I’m here. That’s my hack. I have a lot of mosquito bites and have to deal with some weirdos sometimes but it’s better than paying rent for this broken system. That’s the problem with capitalism/the free market, it allows for inflation to happen and unsustainable costs to rise only to the greedy person’s benefit. Even the good hearted businesses have to raise their prices because they’re just trying to make ends meet. I’m so over it and I try to spend my money as wisely as I can now. Im gonna keep grinding it out over here til I pay off my debt as well. Thanks for the message Tim!
Edit: should let everyone know that this type of lifestyle isn’t for everyone. It’s a lot of manual labor farm work and sleeping in camping-like conditions. There are also weird people/situations that you’ll find in these communal farm environments. But other than that, it’s a humbling experience and you do get to spend everyday closer to nature, which I wouldn’t trade for anything.

Who indoctrinates you to believe this non sense??? The neo conman and the neo libturds are both stealing from those of us who actually pay more into the system than we might ever take out. WAKE UP!!!
Believe me, I think about this almost every day.... my co workers have no idea why I have a "resting B face". Lol. But I'm usually thinking 500 things at once and this topic is one of them. I hate working all the time, paying the SAME bills every month, everything having a fee attached to it. I'm surprised they don't make us work and pay for the air we breathe...
Ah, but they will. That's kind of what "climate change" and a carbon tax is all about.
Current wages are not keeping up with inflation and cost-of-living. There will be a breaking point. It will be interesting to see what happens next. Take care Tim💕
Yeah! And the solution society and some family or friends give for that is to "get another or a better job"! Just that easy! It always shifts the blame on the people affected not the real culprits (Corporations) that cause the greed. They also tell you to "live within your means"! Ha!
turn off the light when you're not in the room! problem solved@@karimaogden3875
@@karimaogden3875 Corporate greed is a sophomoric answer to problems that are exclusively in the realm of macroeconomics.
When exports and productivity decline in a Keynesian system; wages will stagnate.
All inflation is based on debt obligations. Wages cannot keep up with those debt obligations if the credit is not producing it's weight in material value.
If you want wages to strengthen against the US Dollar, then raise interest rates and give tax incentives to keep production in the US.
America is setting itself up for disaster by becoming a 'service' economy, while using cheap foreign labor for all it's manufacturing and commodities.
At this point do people have the ability to stop what they are doing to ask themselves: WTF AM I DOING!?!

Literally just happened to me as well. Was living on a studio for 850 and then they raised it a few months ago to 1200 after a new owner took over. I. Still here but don't want to pay another month in rent but im almost stuck because to move it would take thousands to move that I don't have.

My Sister Rented a house in California, (very nice) for $2200 the rent went up and up and up, it's now $3500 for the same house, she finally had enough!
Moved to outskirts of Huntsville Alabama, and bough a bigger house 3500 Sq ft and 10 acres and now the mortgage is $2000 per month.
Look into a program called NACA and see if they have any seminars in your area. No down payment, no closing costs, no PMI, no credit score needed. Please look into it. I’ve had to figure out something lately so I hope this works for you too. Best wishes
@@karimaogden3875And that’s exactly what they wanted. They-the media, corporations, deep state, etc.-NEED to brainwash the population into thinking our capitalist system is “the best in the world” and nothing can be better. They NEED to create a fear of socialism, so that the sheep don’t even think to look into its benefits. It’s the only way that people willingly subscribe to a system that’s set up for their failure. It’s manipulation.
It is called narcissistic greed, no compassion what so ever.
So, shouldn't we disregard all their advice since it is just an attempt to make us out to be the problem instead of them? We should not worry about being equally selfish and greedy toward them. One-sided relationships are not worthwhile. Stop sacrificing for those who do not reciprocate that sacrifice. It's a bad investment.
you’re the pillar of common sense on UA-cam
100% Agree
I agree, but on this planet common sense ain't common
We have pay the internet to watch you on UA-cam.
Ive thought about this many times myself Tim. I feel for those who are homeless, struggling, hungry. It makes no sense! We are experiencing no love for others, its so hard to see people in the streets,i help who i can but it still bothers me. Thank you for voicing these issues🙏
I admire the homeless because they somehow living without things many abuse and take for granted. Homeless people should make a person humble themself as many do not think they can become homeless. Just because a person is homeless does not mean they do not u derstand or have love or caring or peace. Many people living in houses with employment are not at peace. No matter what being grateful for all that exists is the best way to live. That which one can not control, accept it and be at peace with it. The demonic kingdom loves confusion and wants others to be confused. God is not about confusion nor chaos. As long as people do not seek God, they will seek that which ain’t gonna mean them any good or well-being.
I feel that way every time I pay my $1,425 rent for a one bedroom apartment!!😢
That’s insane amount of money for a one bedroom per month.
@ChrisRoth1972 I know! It really is! When my lease is up I want to move elsewhere!!
That's a nice partof London rent .
@@amywamala you should move to nyc. my sister pays $7500 a month for her townhouse rent. you'll like it here
@eddiew2325 lol are you joking?? 😂 I am originally from New York city and left due to high rent!! If I am struggling with $1,400 rent now, how would I be able to afford 7 grand??? 🤣😂🤣
I agree with you completely amazing how disgusting people are in so-called higher positions and the nasty greediness.
A much needed conversation and talking to other adults who just say 'thats just how it is' reminds me of why things are just getting worse. We have not evolved nor are we becoming better as a people.
This. I see the same. Humanity has stopped growing and from my observation seems to be going backwards despite all our fancy tech toys. As a people we are becoming less kind, less compassionate, less wise, less healthy. This system is making us all sick and it's got to change or we may as well just put an end to it. Barely surviving is not living.
@@deadreckoning6288 Agree. The human species needs to mature emotionally and shift its priorities.
Too many greedy persons in leadership positions all over the world!!!!!! CEO and directors making 10-20 times their average employees salary
I get back at them by being debt free and minimalism. I come and go at work, if they dont like it, fire me.
👏 agree! That’s one element that’s missing…..people all want all the things right away and go into debt to have all the things that ultimately don’t bring the happiness that they searching for.
About halfway through the video you said something that is very similar to this quote. I attended a course by the Leadership Institute of VA in college and the founder, Morton Blackwell, coined a term that resonates with me.
"you can't change the world if you can't pay the rent"
This quote is so enlightening when you consider the powers that be won't let people get to a position where they can change the world, like you said, the system is RIGGED
Speaking of the plutocratic powers that be, I sure hope you've wised up about who the "Leadership Institute" is funded by and what their true agenda is.
In 2023, even if you do pay the rent you still won't be able to change the world. Rent's are skyrocketing so you'll soon be homeless in a tent.
@@brucecombs3108 oh yes. I don't care about any of that now. I was in college and you know how that goes. Got involved with a Prager U Student Division called PragerForce, attended all these waste of time activist events and protests, and attended LIT courses.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I did it. It's harder to believe what's actually going on until you live and exist on both sides of it.
@@mindlessdillan That's awesome. Somehow they got my email address and keep sending me offers to be trained and paid good money to be an on campus right wing rable rouser, (and I graduated 30 years ago!)
Everything we need literally comes out the Earth for free hahaha it's so nuts. Who's Idea was this?!
it sucks but this is the reality we live in but we pay or give time for something that we proceed as value. we can only hold and never own on this earth. we borrow time and resources, we cant take anything to the grave. but the number one currency on earth is having good relationships with people that's why people supper chat you Tim!!! you give us so much value with your talks we love you Tim keep ranting its all good.
Very well said. The only way that we will break away from this system is when the risk of breaking away is worth the reward of freedom. That’s scary because this system is all we know. Breaking away from the known and going into the unknown is scary and risky. Sadly, for us as a society, peace and prosperity for all is an unknown and scary concept.
Food, water, clothing, housing, medical/dental care, transportation, education, auto insurance, life insurance, all this stuff should not cost money. It should be a guarantee.
EXTRAS should cost money. It should be the only stuff that costs money. Vacations. Hotels. Goodies. Luxury cars and homes. Musical instruments. Computers, video games, books, jewelry, kitchenware, tools, boats, etc.
Well those “extras” need a place to stay for you to “in-joy” them. That’s where “Earn Your Leisure” comes in. It suckered you in/enticed you now you are a slave to it.
Who would provide the stuff in your first paragraph that you think you should be entitled to?
@@joannbrown2842 Life/the world should be more about the bartering system. Period.
Books should be free
Life is pay to play basically, best way to put it.
It's funny how people keep trying to bring new players into the fold as if it is some sort of virtue. We're playing a game none of us asked to be a part of.
You know, sometimes i just want to disappear and go and live with a tribe somewhere. Away from all this madness. They seem pretty happy.
That’s what I want to do live on a place and having a quite life ! I’m starting to be ao unhappy with all the cars lights and noise from the city
All the issues of the world has completely broken me. Nothing makes sense. The stupidity of this world astonishes and disturbs me to my core.
They come up with money , make it hard to get the money and then create bullshit ass holidays to take most the money back they made and had you earn . And then you get a day called your "birthday" so that you can celebrate each year by blowing a shit ton of money that you came into this shit hole. Good video brother
I'm so done with this life!
I agree!
And it's almost impossible to live alone in a decent house while working a normal job:(
Been in the car sales business for three weeks, been trained how to scam, trick, and deceive. Everything is corrupt. Real estate, all of it. Just to buy the needs we require to live and get around.
This is the sort of introspection and overthinking i do almost 24/7 and it makes my life totally miserable
Me too you are not alone. It’s not your fault society is deeply flawed and you’re just reacting to it.
@@tevbuffyeah man , super hard times to be a sensitive person as the world is so fucked up everywhere you go
Right on the button Tim! If only we can figure out a way to stop being consumers and become more self sufficient. We the people are sick of paying the system to keep us broke. Take control of our own health, grow our own food, stop falling for the trick that television comercials comvince us we need...name brand clothes, fancy new cars, big house, etc. i feel your video. Felt this way all my life. We are slaves to the system. Wish we all could go off grid make our own way and live in peace instead of stressed out working 3 jobs trying to get by.
I feel this, Tim! I will never understand how taxpayer funds are given as agricultural subsidies to DESTROY food. Sure, I get that agribusiness is a thorny issue that has complications. But to destroy food instead of giving it away? Unthinkable.
Its time to push back against this madness.
Loved this video! Life is definitely frustrating. The more I'm in nature the more disappointed I am in society. Sigh. I'll enjoy my one day off and go to my soul sucking job tomorrow in a positive attitude. 😢
Stay strong sister!! I'm tired of it all too
@@brandonbates9259 It's nice to hear the prince of positivity say what we are all feeling sometime! We just can't wallow in the funk😍
You live in countryside in America? Lucky one, l live in Europe and my dream is exactly that, here countryside is still inexpensive and glamorous with beautiful villages and castles but l would like clean rivers and great woods instead
@@cal9112in America there are no clean rivers left and it is illegal to go to most woods. Sorry to shatter your dream
We're just as insane..I would argue more so than the homeless people we claim are out roaming the street. Crazy isn't it.
This video made me realize that I see the homeless in a different light these days. I'm not better than them, I'm not smarter than them, just lucky. Every homeless person doesn't have the same story, and i realize that i can be in their position in a heartbeat. I have learned quite a bit from talking to them. Villagers have/had a great system living off the earth. Now, people are living off grid. Tim, your video brought up so many questions. Good rant bro. 🙋♂
Many people think homelessness can't happen to them. They're wrong. Some bad luck, a poor decision, a heartless person, a plandemic....can push many over the line. I speak from experience.
Yeah this is the most cruel system ever. I don’t know why people have agreed to abide by this system. Smh it’s sad to see people conform to this very cruel system.
A question I've been asking myself on my channel since 2015.
No wonder animals look at us like We're the animals.
The Worse thing is that there'll Always be a large majority who will think and say "This is how it's Got to be."
My grandparents are from the Caribbean, Montserrat and St Lucia respectively, and I've been there twice, while most of my uncles still live there but sometimes visit us in the UK, and even They say that you can just walk down roads, pick fruits from trees and build your own house on a plot of land.
They can't fathom all this; parking fines, TV licence, overpriced goods, speeding tickets, etc.
Every time wages go up, they ensure the price on everything else goes up too, essentially keeping us trapped in the system of working until retirement, yet, workers Always have the power.
Working to live is part and parcel of the never ending cycle of being stuck in the matrix.
I'd prefer to be a farmer, far away from metropolis life with 3 Rottweilers and music instruments.
Enough is Enough
You said everything that I feel everyday. It's sad that some people will never have to worry about money, food, having a place to live, healthcare, etc. (some of them even without ever having a job) and other people constantly worry if they'll lose their job, wind up homeless, starving, and so on. It just isn't right. It's not that I think that people should just be handed things, but it's like you said. The system seems to be rigged so that some people have everything and other people are constantly struggling no matter how hard they try.
Unfortunately I don't think the U.S. is ever gonna change and will continue to strip away at the middle and lower class. It's too expensive here I'm looking for a exit strategy taking Spanish and French and planning on leaving.
Tim this subject is incredibly profound. 👌 Having Children, means ' GET ON THE HAMSTER WHEEL'
I agree with everything! It’s Crazy! Especially now with the inflation and higher Taxes. 😬😬
It is insanity! And that's why some people decide to take what they want even if they know it's wrong!
Exactly the easiest way to get something is to take that shit straight up
October last year I decided to get out from under a house payment and move into my van + climate controlled storage. I got tired of all my money being gone all the time. Rent and utilities were the most expensive bills. As for medical care, I have the V.A. for now. I'll be 60 next month. Tired of losing, now I'm winning. Gotta be unorthodox about life, 👍
Essentially what the system does is tell us to prove our worth (rather than recognise our inherent worth as human beings despite all the human rights treaties officially in place to uphold our dignity). And the way our worth is assessed is by how much we earn. Only once we have proven our worth do we get to survive or thrive according to how successful we are. The system is unjust and also creates misery by rewarding the most ruthless. Sociopaths rise to the top of the system.
So well put, you pretty much summed it up perfectly. When you really take a step back from things and look at our current economy and society, it really is insane. It is a hard thing to come to terms with but we I think were are living in a dystopia right now, or at least it is dystopian for most people, even if we have technological advances and modern conveniences, the core of our current system is dystopian. Greedy people have claimed/stolen free resources and are selling it back to us. The economy is also essentially a giant pyramid scheme. It is totally rigged against the middle and lower classes. In the 40's someone working in a factory could support a wife, a couple kids, easily be able to afford a house and a car and have enough to be more than comfortable. Now both partners need to work full time just to survive, never mind thrive, it's just plain crazy, life doesn't have to be like this, we are being conned, and in a game that is rigged from the start, the only winning move is not to play.
Your last line is spot on and that's what I've come to. I'm simply not going to play their game.
@@deadreckoning6288same. I'm working part time and going back to university in France to study English. I'm done. 12 euros per hour in Nice does t even pay for a studio apartment. It's a scam.
You are absolutely on point!!! I love it, I love it, I love it!!!
Rant away. I saw that recently things are a bit harder with the jobs and all
Love your truthfulness and about the fake system totally dependent on the paper money and how human beings have to struggle for basic needs 😮
It is so crazy…I agree with you, Timothy
Especially can’t understand paying to park near the God given ocean…
I understand how you feel Tim I really do.
Housing prices are going through the roof, and it's tough for people around my age (24~) to imagine ever owning a house of our own.
Unfortunately, I don't have a clear solution. This is a challenge for many people worldwide.
I do think staying positive is important, dwelling on this tough situation won't do us no good.
my advice for everyone is to focus on the things we love and what we can do to improve our lives and the lives of those around us.
Things might get better with time and its always good to have faith.
May everyone find fortune, positivity, and happiness in their journeys.🌱
Really makes you want to go off the grid and live off the land. I’ve actually thought about it and still look at videos of people who have done it.
You are a true philosopher and deep thinker. Need more people like you who care.
This is why I believe in UBI. People say that it's radical, it's crazy, etc. But there's a growing body of evidence that it could really work.
Yeah every one should be asking themselves these questions right now
That makes the gov't very uncomfortable.
