Government use of fear on a population to manufacture consent for bad policy is not new and only succeeds because we allow it. "Units of power (Read as US) %u2013 corporate, political and military %u2013 will only act in their best interests. For them to do otherwise would be illogical". As citizens, we must act in our best interests. We owe it to ourselves and our society to be skeptical of our leaders, question authority, demand the truth and hold them accountable.
