[Atrocities]

The reason why people are deluded into thinking that crime rates are increasing is because the news media's coverage of crime has been steadily increasing over the Last decade. Every year, more and more of the news is devoted to reporting on crimes, though there are fewer each year.

Are you calling me deluded? Why thank you

Those statisics are inaccurate. They are customized to reflect information that is desired, and not true at all.

Look at the Governments unemployment reports, they list say 1 million poeple out of work because they are collecting unemployment when the number is closer to 11 million because 10 million people have lost, or used up their unemployment benefits.

So simply put, don't believe anything published by the US Government that reflects a positive. After all, these are the same guys who led us to believe that Iraq had huge stock piles of WoMD, and non have been found yet. (Side not, I could care less about the Iraq thing, but still, it just goes to show you, those putting out the info are not always honest about it.)
