Absolutely. Right-wing and corporate media only like it when people are ignorant of what is really happening, which is why they adored the Tea Party protests. Republicans politicians and their wealthy masters want the people to be dumb, frightened, and ignorant, so they can easily direct them to what works best for Republican politicians and their wealthy masters.
The Tea Party was just that.
The TEA Party is about taxes, big government, and spending, it has nothing to do with Wall Street and the TEA Party doesn't go after "Wall Street greed" like you mentioned. Sean Hannity's comment was directed at GOVERNMENT who gave bailouts to companies who were irresponsible, it wasn't directed at Wall Street. Are you really this confused?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
