Half a truth is often a great lie

Where Are All the Jobs?

	The figure of 15 million unemployed reported by the government and reiterated by the corporate media is one of the biggest distortions ever.

 

The storyline being sold to the American public is that the economy is growing, jobs are being created, corporations are generating record profits, consumers are spending, and all will be well in 2011. The 2% payroll tax cut, stolen from future generations to be spent in 2011, will jump-start a sound economic recovery. Joseph Goebbels would be proud. 

It was another wise old man named Ben Franklin who captured the essence of what those in control are peddling: 

“Half a truth is often a great lie.”
