Someone tell me though... How do you fight corruption when you can't even see it? I mean we elected these congressmen as a whole. I bet everyone on this thread thinks they "know" and others don't. Its not just congress, your media is bought and paid for too. And that's our source of "news". Again, some sit and think maybe for everyone else, but THEY watch the "right" network. How do you fight the corruption when it's all packaged and sold?


Ultimately however, you're only going to slow things down at best, not stop or reverse them. Humans are greedy creatures. Greed causes corruption. As soon as you plug one hole, another is created.


Why is our news given to us by for-profit companies that have a conflict of interest in what they deliver? There are certain things in life that should NOT be run as a business. To me, the news is one of them. Made me sad the other day because Hrant's daughter Posted here and young people like her with an idealistic vision, have no choice but to function in a corporate setting whose overall motivation is profit not transparency.
