I don't think they teach it, but your point that facts don't matter and "balance" and being "objective" do, is a wonderful observation. <br /><br />I hope more people pick up on what is happening with conservatism. <br /><br />Thank you for making my point (from other blog posts) in your response.Democurmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336177394503335112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183447461205976739.post-66187983231351396052013-02-18T06:34:22.838-06:002013-02-18T06:34:22.838-06:00Sorry -- you write good stuff, but this post is ju...Sorry -- you write good stuff, but this post is just off-base.<br /><br />Conservative POLITICIANS are not hired by wealthy elite interests to talk rational sense about business and numbers. Making this about whether walker and his ilk understand business is a distraction -- he serves a purpose whether he understands what he is doing or not.<br /><br />Most people just don't understand math and our school curriculum is designed to ensure this -- especially when it comes to financial accounting.<br /><br />Our schools also ensure that the public is taught propoganda that journalism is not about real information or truth -- schools teach it is "balanced" and "objective" -- absolutely false and this lie is what makes fox news possible (and the rest of the media echo-chamber).<br /><br />The folks conservative sucker to vote for them have no understanding of math or fiscal affairs -- the politicians job is to keep them stoooooopid so they can be exploited.<br /><br />And since the public is so dumbed down about math and numbers (thank a teacher) they cannot contemplate that our closed, proprietary, and unverifiable elections can be statistically demonstrated to be inaccurate-at-best, but actually election fraud.<br /><br />walker does not need to win honest elections -- just create the illusion that we are divided 50/50.<br /><br />He is following in his cousin's, george WALKER bush's, footstep.<br /><br />And it has nothing to do with whether walker or bush understand the snake oil the media sells us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
