This came to mind again recently while I was thinking about how we are daily bombarded by lies from governments, institutions, and business through their controlled and financed public relations firms and medias. Stories are created to deceive and mislead either to profit a wealthy corporate class or to maintain power for the know nothing, do nothing, leaderless leaders who fill up the seats of Parliaments, Ministries, and Congresses worldwide. It is the common citizen who suffers the most and are asked to sacrifice while those in power continue to increase in riches. I have often wondered why the one's with the knife to the throat are so active to defend and protect the one's who are holding the knife to their throats. Crazy world that we live in. Enslavement called freedom and plutocracy called democracy.
