Website With Accurate Facts On The Issues
Politics stands alone among all disciplines, in choosing not to seek accurate information to guide it. Why has our government never created a reliable source of information on America’s issues, to educate our people and our leaders? It is clear that making false statements is easier when there is a dearth of accurate information.
In 242 years no attempt has been made to create a source of knowledge on America’s issues.
We have all seen politicians lie on national TV, and we seem powerless to stop it. Yet there is a simple solution – make truthfulness part of the oath of office. Then if they lie, they have violated their oat of office and can be removed.
I regularly call Congressional offices and tell the unfortunate person who answers that their Congressman is a liar and has no integrity. Maybe if millions of us did this, our leaders will begin to realize that lying, as a strategy of governance, is unacceptable. If other disciplines can live with the truth, we must demand that our leaders do so, or remove them from office.
Why Has No One Attempted To Research And Present America’s Issues For All To Study
Knowledge is Power. Democracy and good governance must begin with Knowledge. Unfortunately, America has never chosen to create a source of accurate Knowledge of its issues.
We can create it, an accurate, unbiased source of information on the major issues, assembled in one website, for all to see – No Spin, No Slant, No Disinformation, No Misinformation. In all important endeavors of study in our world: Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Astronomy, and more, people actively seek the best knowledge.
In politics people actively seek to distort information – to gain power, influence, and money. Isn’t it time we stop this? We need only to assemble researchers to find the best information on our most important issues. The internet allows us to do this, better than has ever been possible.
It takes time to become a person of knowledge; it takes a little study each day to improve ourselves. This is the situation into which all people are born. When enough people take the time to learn the issues, they will be able to discern which leaders have integrity and which don’t, and how the issues should be intelligently decided.
Striking The Truth Website
The sample website page above is one way we could create a website with the latest and best information on America’s issues. The first issues to study are listed on the right. The topics within those issues are shown on the left. When you select an issue, you can decide whether you want to see summary information or go into greater detail. You can also choose whether you wish to read the information, watch a video presentation, or listen to the information as you drive or jog. There has never been a website that offered these choices.
Since no one gets all the facts right, there is a choice to submit information you believe is more accurate. You can do so, along with the source of your facts, and if they are more accurate, they will be incorporated into the topic.
This website is a multimedia presentation of America’s issues, and it would become more and more accurate over time, becoming a national repository of knowledge. If the facts of some issues are not clearly visible, we can commission research to illuminate those facts. Isn’t it time?
