"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."
(H. L. Mencken.)

Maybe "imaginary" should be replaced by "manufactured", but the results are the same. People become scared, and give a blank check to the gov't. The only thing one has to do is to follow the money trail... see who benefits, and then most if not all the answers are becoming clear.

"In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, it was planned that way".
(Franklin D. Roosevelt)

"It is inherent in government's right, if necessary, to lie... that seems to me basic - basic".
(Arthur Sylvester, former Assistant Secretary of Defense)
