"Of all the offspring of Time, Error is the most ancient, and is so old and familiar an acquaintance, that Truth, when discovered, comes upon most of us like an intruder, and meets the intruder's welcome. - "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" 1814, Charles Mackay
You can lie all you want--they will *let* you lie--as long as it makes them feel good about themselves, and superior to the alternatives. And the cycle/bargain/dependence continues.
