I do believe it also that many government leaders paint a rosy picture when the opposite is true. They are in the business of protecting their jobs, and very few get elected when they tell the truth. Remember Walter Mondale in 1984? He stated the crushing deficits our country was facing would hurt us in the future. He stated he would raise taxes to cut the deficit, so as to not cut Social Security. He lost by a landslide.

Welcome to Truthed, which is a fun site with many different points of view.
