A message to be heard
Thursday, July 15th, 2010We don’t get the real information or anything more than buzz, opinion and dramatic sound bites in most of today’s media. The press moves from one headline to the next and what they touted as urgent! Disaster! Dramatic Crisis! has a half life of around three days and is never heard of again. Or occasionally if the ratings hold up the story will stick around, like OJ Simpson trial, Sarah Palin’s stupidity, and the BP Oil disaster.
Hopefully more and more people will get their news and information from the internet, and we can begin moving back toward a government of the people, by the people and FOR the people. Somehow our values have inverted and now the majority of the companies have placed bottom line greed ahead of people, quantity ahead of quality, objective accumulation ahead or subjective experience. And that’s interfering with the quality of life we say we want. Witness the BP oil disaster (representative of the short term, short-sighted decision making process), Iran and Afghanistan wars, the megabank’s greed speculation… When I look for solutions the fist step I see is for more people to be informed and educated. Here’s a trailer that moves in that direction:
