Don't ask them to give up their social security or medicare though.
True but it goes both ways. Government is people. Businesses are people. It is the people in authority positions in both institutions that make them corrupt. Government can be the problem in some things, in some it is not. They frame it like " if everyone has free healthcare they are taking money from YOU " in reality they could frame it much different like " the savings from adequate care, less ER time, no "insurance middle man", and all other facets of universal health care would actually put more money in your pocket after it is all said and done" I pay 150 a month for health care... and never use it.
Is it much of a stretch to say that most things are calculated and are released for reasons. Spin is very effective of a tool in propaganda. I could show you a picture of a massacred body and say " This man was killed by Libyan government ". Would you accept it, or ask for more evidence? If you want more evidence, don't you think CNN, NBC, FOX, should have to show more evidence as well? What makes them more of an authority then I, should you not question them also? Why is this that?
How many people watch TYT, compared too CNN, NBC, Fox?
The questions is how do we make REAL news the REAL news, and not this fake spinny spin spin garbage most people watch.
