Ahh Ok. I see what you are saying now. Very good point.

I guess we work within the mechanism of the market and this can create a feedback loop (of stupidity and idiocracy). What we need are organizations and institutions with integrity that refuse to degrade their offerings for economic benefit. This brings to mind PBS and NPR and why I always find myself going back to them. They have a certain level of integrity that remains above their corporate competitors.

Amen. If we could only get our collective heads around the fact that economic benefit is not the only one that affects our quality of life.
