   Every few years the percentage of income "thought" to be OK to spend on housing and transportation is increased. Eventually there will be none left for food, heat, and electricity.

     @Eka_FOOF_A I know someone who works (working poor) and now has to scavenge McDonald trash bins for food to make ends meet. But he is told this is the "best economy ever".

     @Eka_FOOF_A Unless their own identify is also tied with the lie as they realize it's a lie they will come to hate you, and never trust you again. The cult is a special case where the person is made to identify with the lie, then they embrace it even if they do know it's untrue because to reject it is to reject themselves too.

     @gnutelephony Tell a person a lie often enough, and they will believe it. That is the power of propaganda.

     @Eka_FOOF_A white America is a racist cult that people already identify with the lies that it tells to itself. The person I am talking about is not part of white America, not even white, and will now never vote for Biden, either.
