Oppressed
Years ago Benjamin Franklin created our first free press system so the common man can speak out freely against government, politics, & the privileged.
Today the common man, or woman, has freedom to speak out against any and all things. The problem is that today we are being oppressed, or perhaps suppressed, by big business and media that prefers printing favorably about the doings of their advertisers.
What are your thoughts?
When have you tried to speak out for the common good and been shoved down in the dirt--or perhaps simply overlooked?
