"That was a UFO beaming back at ya. Me and Eric Eisen was down in Mexico two weeks ago. We seen 40 of 'em flying in formation. They've got places all over the world now, you know. They been coming here ever since 1946, when the scientists started bouncing radar beams off of the moon. And they have been living and working among us in vast quantities ever since. The government knows all about em. ...They are people just like us, from within our own solar system, except but their society is more highly evolved. They don't have no wars. They got no monetary system. They don't have any leaders. Because, I mean, each man is a leader. Because of their technology they are able to feed, clothe, and transport themselves equally and with no effort. ...Why haven't they contacted us? Because of the tremendous shock it would be to our antiquated system. The result of this has been that the Venusians have contacted people from all walks of life. All walks of life. It would be a devastating blow to our antiquated system. So now, Venusians are mating with people from all walks of life, in an advisory capacity. And for once, man will have a God-like control over his own destiny. He will have a chance to transcend and to evolve with some equality for all."
from Easy Rider, 1969
