like i said.... it is better to be in a real third world country than on a third world country wannabe... and don't misunderstand me.... i hope, i wish i am wrong... but everything seems to indicate otherwise... the stealing... blatant corruptions... and the 'don't give a shit' attitude... can only lead somewhere... more than green... we have become broke :(

Since we have federally sponsored media and arts, think that there should be a mandate that these organizations have a bias that is opposite that of the incumbent president. That would mean that when a democrat is POTUS, NPR and the NEA would have to have a conservative bent. When a republican is the POTUS, NPR and NEA would have a liberal bent. Same thing if we bail out the newspaper industry. an alternate approach would be if one party has both houses of congress and the Presidency, the other party would control the messages going out of the these organizations. The form it would take is that there would be three equal executives in the NEA, NPR, NPN (National Public Newspaper). In the case where both houses of congress and the president are Democrat, Each of the media executives would be appointed by the republican party. If both houses of congress are republican and the president is democrat, two media executives would be democrat and one would be republican. Since we know that there is going to be a political bias wherever there is a message going out, we should accept it and use it to really truly provide another check in our political system.
