tblog-ly bankrupt
lemme make it very clear that this entry is purely to get me out of tblog bankruptcy. i dont like seeing a negative number on my account, whether it involves real money or otherwise. but i will include some real stuff on this entry.
just how much do you trust the media? is everything you see in the newpapers, on tv and everything you hear on the radio really what they seem to be? recently i've been getting the news behind the news, ie getting the other side of the story. i really dont think its right or fair for anybody's power to go unchallenged. so i believe that a little confrontation or rebellion is very healthy, and should be welcomed.
not all people think this way.
some people think that those in power have worked their way there and hence, deserve to be in a position whereby the hold so much influence and have an unbelievable impact on the lives of those they govern. however they fail to keep in mind whatever back doors and all the scheming that goes into eventually having power. i'm not saying all politicians are corrupt, but a majority of the major players appear to be so.
then there's the whole money issue. then there's the whole media control issue. if the media is controlled and information is not passed on to the people freely, then how can you call a country truly FREE? if what the people see, hear and know is controlled, how can you honestly justify the state of your country? how can you even think to call yourself a fair and just country when you clearly BLIND your people and make them see an image of something that you want them to see? where is the justice in that?
i know for a fact that this doesnt happen in just one country. but it just appals me.
