More for you for less

"More for you for less", yes, not bad. But for whom? Asda says it's for all Asda's customers. Sure, good things are for others. One may be astonished, or shocked, if you hear "more for us for less".

Although one probably would not hear people saying so, some people are actually doing so. According to several recent reports, GP, by actively involving themselves in the setting of rules of game, are earning more by working less. They now work much less than before, not really different from consultants, but earn much more. The weird new contract, the result of their intellegent negotiation with the government, makes them especially benefited from. Yes, people can realize "more for us for less".

Last Thursday, a report says that the administrative authority of some counties suggest that, for the environmental reasons, residential rubbish would be collected once for two weeks. They find a good reason for working less. Another reason, not equally stressed - you may guess why it is not, is the tight budget. To collect more frequently needs more manpower. However, not long ago we read that the salary of chief executives of county council is increasing at a striking speed. The reason is their job is hard and they deserve the pay and pay rise. Anyway, we now find what they are doing.

You are what you read

"You are what you eat", as is widely said. It means people eating much fat get fatty. Very alike, convincing evidence shows that "you are what you read". Right-wing people write right-wing papers. For what? on the one hand, for the freely expression of their own views, but on the other hand, probably more deliberately and importantly, for the effective influence of other people's views. A reader constantly exposed to such papers and media, I think, can hardly keep unaffected for long.

According to a recently paper on Guardian, newspapers in UK fall into right-wing group and left-wing group. Most, including The Times, belong to the former; Guardian is probably the only major influential daily newspaper that voices the views of left-wing people. The major cause, revealed in this paper, is that these media are controlled by right-wing people. Not for too long, I guess, we will see a somewhat mentally-reshaped reader population. Unhappy? To be rich first. A little money brings you more choices, and more money makes you capable of controlling more things.
