    jim, the trick is not to "tell" them the truth, but to make them curious enough to ask questions. :)

    The truth can be tempered with compassion without having to lie or conceal. Yet it seems that those in most need of the truth are the most adamant about their ignorance.

    Most Americans believe the truth to be the lie, and the lie to be the truth, so that gets a little tricky..........I like to stick with the facts, as in dates, signatures, and truth that is not opinion (One's truth, My truth). People are educated toward ignorance....it keeps them in obedient, and sleepy. I still speak up when someone opens their unimformed mouth (when it feels right to speak up. I would have remained silent at the Republican debates, except to cheer for the only one speaking with any integrity....Ron Paul), and correct them with the facts. They are surprised at first, and slow to their normal resonse of anger (my republican friends froth at the mouth they are kept so ignorant. I'll say, "did you hear that on fox? That isn't news, neither is MSN, etc, nor any "media" in the US".....Corporatocracy, is what the media serves, and they do it well! I loved all yr comments above, Jim, J., Mike, and E. And lastly, I always spread the truth with kindness, love, and hopefully some humor, and forgive the ignorant, for they have been manipulated, and led to drink the coolaid that has them deep in slumber. I too, was ignorant to what was going on in my world, and now I am wide awake! I joined with We The People, who are taking it ALL back! Anger needs to be put on the down low (eliminating it altogether seems to be difficult), and a cool head works well in keeping the peace. When info is delivered with LOVE, the message isn't so extreme, and people are more open about the subject, and will at least listen. Listening and hearing is the first step to breaking out of the prison we all live in, just because we can't see the bars, doen't mean we are "free" under the law of the Republic, which the robber barons change to suit their deadly (to the People) agenda of PROFIT above all else, which clearly is not Capitalism, nor good for The People of any country! We simply must change their charter, and make them serve the 99, instead of the 1, like it was when our country was founded. ALL corporations (and their were very few) operated under a charter, every little detail was outlined, and they, to some extent, had to be good for America (all of us), or their charter was revoked. Back to basics, is what this Progressive~Conservative~Constitutionalist, says! That is my vision for my world.
