9798190130126: The DIY Revolution: 10 Easy Steps to Get the Government You Want

Synopsis

Please, join the movement that is sweeping our nation.
Rarely does a book have the opportunity to meet the urgent needs of the people, as this novel does.
The DIY Revolution : 10 Easy Steps to get the Government You Want, is our rallying cry—a blend of personal stories, historical insights, and biting humor. An inspirational guide to take back our rights.
Republican, Democrat, Independent, this affects us all.
They keep us divided and in debt, with an economic system that reads more like the back of a shampoo bottle, than some sort of financial plan.
Hope, Struggle, Fail, Repeat.
This book isn’t just another critique, and unlike most other novels, my words don’t stop at outrage. On these pages are the tools for real grassroots empowerment, told by someone who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Yes, I’m a southern man, if the accent didn’t give it away, the horse out front definitely does.
I suffer a small town heart, with a big city necessity, that’s what 30 years of building stuff around this country will get you. It’s the people I’ve met on my journey that have led me to write this book, because we all have more in common than we realize.
This book is about connection, about manipulation, about our natural rights having been stolen, and about being denied the opportunity to be the best we can, to the best of our abilities.
The DIY Revolution is more than a book—it’s a blueprint for building opportunity, justice, rights, and actual representation for us. You can reclaim your voice in just ten actionable steps.
Don’t just read about change, be the change. Grab a copy today. Write in it, highlight it, tear out pages and stick them on your fridge. Buy a copy for a friend, family, someone you don’t know. Spread the word.
We need you. This is not an invitation; it is an expectation.
Wealthy Elites tell us who we should be; our actions determine who we are.

About the Author

I looked in the mirror at the faint outline of the city behind me, then at the houses flashing in front of me. Then, again back towards town, finally, once more in front, and you could hear the crackle-pop as the lightbulb in my head lit up.
Not only did I live on the wrong side of the tracks, but I had also grown up on the wrong side of those same tracks.
"I'll be damned, all these years thinking I was a pretty good person, and it turns out, I was the guy your mama warned you about."

From the Back Cover

People don't dress chic poor.
The real world gets home from work way after dark.
We are exhausted. We smell funky.
We stand at the kitchen sink, eating supper straight out of the takeout container, and later we fall asleep with a cell phone in our hand.
We should be living in a world where want and need are the choices of the individual, and not a condemnation because of status. Life is designed so that sooner or later, we will all have some sort of struggle, yet blame ourselves for failing, never acknowledging the actual cause.
We need you. Join us, take that first step.
This book is more than just a toolkit for grassroots resistance, it is a mix of historical and factual analysis, personal anecdotes, and practical steps that empower everyone. This is a blueprint for a better future.
These are realistic and actionable steps for us all. Simple steps because that is how revolutions begin.
Way, way back, a long time ago. Back before cell phones, social media, or even planes, trains or automobiles. In the city of Boston, nine friends would meet at a pub after work, for a beer. Just ordinary people, hanging out, flirting with the women-folk, talking life problems, and realizing they had a lot of the same issues.
Next thing you know. BLAMMO!
Revolution, baby.
It really can be as easy as that.
Please, the next time you see your friends; take a little time to hang out.
Talk about your lives.
Smile a while.
Maybe loan them this book.
Rarely does a book have the opportunity to meet the urgent needs of the people in such a critical moment.
The Wealthy Elites tell us who we should be; our actions determine who we are.

From the Inside Flap

1976
Squinting through the dark, I could sort of see two bare feet.
Little Grandma called out. "Boy come out from under that bed before you get stung, bit, or completely ate."
"No ma'am. It's safe under here." I respectfully declined and lifted the corners of my pillow, folding it around the back of my head to cover both ears. Another crackle from outside and lightning lit up my room.
"Cricket, don't worry about that storm, it's all show." Her voice softened, "But you stay under there if you want."
Her right foot lifted, turned slightly, then settled back around. "You want me to grab a pillow and join you?"
"No ma'am, after the storm passes I'm gonna get back in bed." I hoped.
"Ok, I just thought you might like an extra pair of eyes if a scorpion comes a huntin.'" Little Grandma half teased, half warned.
I watched her feet. This time, they both turned and walked towards the bedroom door, stopping just inside the room.
"I miss Grandmother too. Not just during the storms, or in the night, well, now that I think about it, maybe even more at night, and also a lot more during storms." She let out a sigh.
"When I was little, I was timid about things, especially storms like this. One day Grandmother sat me on her knee. She told me when a storm comes, you lift your head, you look right at it. If you run, you are at the mercy of the storm, but, but Cricket, if you walk into the storm, you are the first person to reach the sunshine on the other side."
Little Grandma's feet moved, she walked through the doorway to vanish around the corner.
I slid out. Stood there with one foot still under the bed just in case, looking out the window.
Then I climbed into my bed.
