As a nation, we do not honor the truth. As individuals, we do not honor the truth. It is not a mystery as why we live in a country full of liars, daily corruption, greed and a line 10,000 miles long of individuals willing to do or say anything at whatever the cost to others or the planet to make a buck. The reason why is because we have learned that telling the truth results in pain and suffering and who the hell in their right mind is going to do that when they know what is going to happen next?
