The people don't seem to want to know because they have become conditioned to not ask questions.
What's the saying "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, and ignorance is bliss!"
The government wants to keep us ignorant so we don't ask questions.

The people tend to forget because they largely can't keep their attention on any one subject long enough to learn what is going on, unless it's American (idiot)Idol, or the voice, or DWTS or any other of the numerous brain draining shows that we are force fed on national tv.

I find it more and more frustrating that there is less and less intelligent tv on, and what is on isn't worth even considering.

Then when a truly news-worthy event comes around, people can't be bothered to listen or learn because they HAVE to catch their latest shows. Then when they do turn to their "news" stations, the stories are covered like a hollywood movie premier.....ALL stars but no substance!

I am a legend in my own mind!
