"Why do we follow the stars?"
Got me thinking, we follow them as they are elevated into what would be considered minor royalty with their fame. This gives a tool/voice to control the emotions of sheeple, and lean opinion… especially if there is nogoodniks about. "Well, if the Nero (Rome much?) says it's bad, well since he got an academy award for the fisher king, well then he has to know what is right for me to believe in regards to the Prez…." bleh. Odious. Only in retrospect have i realized how blind we were.
