1. Politicians say what suits their purpose in any given situation
They rely on the apathy and amnesia of citizens to survive.

"...to speak to you like an honest man, I am most dreadfully attended."

2. Yea I know how it works.

Every person has done some wrong, and they need to do better, including me.

But the intent is to try and get you to only see the wrong someone does so you constantly attack people that also have good.

That is obvious, they want you to only see the bad in people and be mean all the time.

That is nothing new.


Lets look at the example, I like Nancy, she does much good in my view, and makes some mistakes.

So then comes her opinion on the tax deal, and what gets posted, an article showing something she did wrong.

Why.

So that people will only see the wrong.



The tax breaks for the rich, under threat of economic oppression and even attacks on people is wrong, and people will not protect such people that are brutal like that, only to try and protect people for better motives. I do believe people of better motive and in hardship will be protected.


Some people do those things for political motives, so that is not to protect people, but to make a theater out of much of it.


So the conversation is not about data, but about function. It is to think on many topics of what is done.

The rich are blackmailing people with threats of harm (same thing fire and brimstone is actually) So maybe that's rules applied back, not sure.

But anyways those that stand up to many for better reasons, and those that 'could' be hurt by their threats should be protected, while those that make such threats for selfish reasons should be discarded.


And they just see that and turn it back on what they see as the evil poor, and say that what ever they have they are suppose to have. And even say because they can take it then it is theirs. They even might use other peoples things for their benefit without just and honorable wage (something I have not done)

So function without data, it is obvious who is in trouble.
