Yeah, don't inquire further. What does it matter that these same people also own the news media? We live in a democracy. End of story.

There’s never been more access to information. I can read news about American from Al Jazeera, The BBC, NPR, The Economist, or a wealth of other news stories not owned by rich Americans.

If I vote against my own self-interest it’s my own fault for not knowing better, or because I think something else is more important.

  • That's just incredibly naive and not representative of the general American voting public.
