POLITICS AND LYING

Here is a link to a political writer about the lying in our system and an article he wrote today about it. I personally do not usually read much in the way of politics, but this guy has a good handle on the corrupt culture of Washington, although he never talks about 911 because he is so main stream, he nevertheless speaks of corruption in many other areas.

As it goes for political writers in the main stream to turn a blind eye to the bigger picture of things such as 911, there is at least a little value in his speaking of corruption where he sees it.

But this article in particular is good as it shows their mindset in lying.

Thanks for that article Gabriel and the thread title!



I call it Loss mindset, which is rotten to the core and something within most humans in this mindset of where we are at right now.

Reminds of some quote stating that power and greed corrupts all... and it does.

"power and greed corrupts all...and it does"

I have to disagree.

Power never corrupts unless the user of that power wishes it so.
The people in "power" at the moment try to teach us that 'Power Corrupts'.
To use power as they do, yes.., but power with love for everything is
what we were made for. To seek Power.
Greed is a lack of power in one's self, therefore, making one powerless.
Powerlessness is a want of knowledge.
Knowledge is what you have for yourself.,
To know one's self is to love one's self,
To love one's self means to love all,
To love all, means Knowledge,
Knowledge is power., lacking in nothing.
It's how we attain knowledge.., that is the problem.
The hunger..., greed., for anything, is ignorance.

To hunger for the power of knowledge is ignorance!
To love.., now that's knowledge!
