Mainstream perception
based on outdated delivery system
To the editor:
On the surface our society seems to be caught somewhere between twisted hate, tough love, and compassion. These are the messages delivered by our elected officials and from traditional corporate broadcasting.
There are information sources available from individuals more interested in the structural changes necessary
to fix our broken political and economic situation. Mainstream perception is focused on century old concepts that do not contend with the technological changes in our society and the problems that have been produced.
There is a tremendous drag on progressive information becoming widespread. The interests of the very small minority who have conquered the system are the predominant force in our culture. Overcoming resistance to workable solutions may prove to be an insurmountable task with devastating consequences.
