      When will people learn?

      There’s a quote from “A Connecticut Yankee” by Mark Twain about slavery and the civil war: “...the ‘poor whites’ of our South who were always despised, and frequently insulted, by the slave lords around them, and who owed their base condition simply to the presence of slavery in their midst, were yet pusillanimously ready to side with the slave lords in all political moves for the upholding and perpetuating of slavery, and did also finally shoulder their muskets and pour out their lives in an effort to prevent the destruction of that very institution which degraded them.”

      The quote describes perfectly how Americans are manipulated into working against their own best interests by the elites. Anti-unionism, "tea parties," opposition to the "Death Tax,"  it happens over and over again.

      Jack Bauer, Tony Soprano, I thought the right dispised hollywood.  Yet how many times does it always retreat to characters on TV shows and movies to make their points?
