Low Information

Want to know something?

It's far better to become informed on a topic BEFORE the media or politicians get ahold of it than to form your opinions afterwards.

That way when they begin to get things wrong, you know right away, perhaps in time for your voice to matter.

If you wait until they're debating at the capitol before pull out your smart phone and Google it, you will almost assuredly be getting a lot of hits intended to sway you rather than inform.

Of course that will mean putting down the endless distractions of entertainment and actually studying up on topics...
