How can you tell the media manipulates the public and drives the agendas of the corporations; you might ask.
It is never okay for the US government to write legislation in secret from the general public and yet that is exactly what the amnesty bill was; and then was quickly brought to a vote without elected leaders able to read it and to effectively weigh the economic impacts upon the nation.
Lobbyist probably had something to do with this, but interesting is the fact that Obama, Clinton, and McCain (even Huckabee who has now flip-flopped on this issue) had a chance to chage how this process was moving forward and demand there not be a process without ALWAYS including the general public.
Negative impacts on healthcare costs, welfare costs, wage growth, the environment, the infrastructure, power and gas requirements, and the list goes on; yet the media wanted the public not just complacent on the fact that legislation was being written in secret from the general public but also the overwhelming negative impacts from illegal aliens.
No mention of how illegal aliens make the cost of living go up for things like power, gas, and rent while lowering wages for working positions/evaporate self employment opportunities at the bottom of the scale doing things like cleaning, landscaping, and construction and how all these negative aspects really hurt the newest LEGAL IMMIGRANTS that have come to our country.
What a pathetic media indeed; unless you are on the board of a major corporation!
