There is this popular saying, "only the truth can set you free". But now the truth you told can even cause you your life. We are living in a society now that you dignity, sinserity and truthfulness does not count, cause people worship money more than anything. The masses wouldn't be going through this hash economy if our leader has be telling us the truth because they know that no body can challenge them. Thus, the society value lie more than the truth because of money.
