You know, the more you pay attention to authority figures, the more you see the types of games they play on the people they control. And the people usually have no clue they are playing this game, much less that there is a game being played.

A good example of this is the age old tactic of "framing the argument". Basically, you could have a particular stance on an issue that you think is really important, and the person you're dealing with doesn't want that point to be spread. So they end up changing the discussion into something that while it may seem similar, completely takes you away from your original argument.  Pundits and politicians do this all the time.

In this video, I give an example of that, using that good old issue, health care.

(by the way, I know I've been using this "old film" filter a lot recently. It's for two reasons: 1, it works with the crappy camera I'm using, and 2, I like it. :P)
