People often fail to trust what they don't understand, and instead believe those who offer easy to understand but often false or inaccurate information. People also look locally but are told things that apply globally and they can't connect the two. This of course means they are likely to be manipulated by people who know how to tailor the message. I don't know if our education system is up creating a population that can understand what they are being told and when they are being lied to. Life today is filled with so many decisions and concepts and information and connections and maybe it is too complex for most people to comprehend. This may just lead people to give up and never get beyond easy answers.
