The newspapers write a story to fit the opinion they want to push and then try to find the news to fit it.
The Doctor goes onto to explain how they are fishing for opinions.
So the Newspapers find someone who is abusing the welfare system and continually push that so their readers believe that everyone who is on benefits must be abusing the system.
They take the extreme cases and push them as being mainstream.
The health tourists who use the NHS - its a insignificant issue - less than a quarter of 1% but ask their readers and they would say its crippling the NHS so they must end the NHS and go to a private insurance based system.
Its why you get people who hate everyone except the billionaires -
on benefits - must be scroungers, not paying in
using the nhs - fat munters who don't look after themselves,
immigrants - taking our jobs,
poor pensioners - scroungers who never contributed,
on low pay - lazy who can't find better paying jobs,
Billionaires and super rich - well they pay their taxes and they spend money and don't take out of the system. Based on debunked trickle down theory.
What about footballers? How has the immense wealth of football trickled down to the workers? Well the prem clubs still employ people on minimum wage to do the cleaning, stewarding etc- strange how they money hasn't trickled down to them.
