And what is it that the Right-Wing media feeds?
Indian Wisdom:

An elderly Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to them, "a fight is going on inside me, it is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

One wolf is evil - he is fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, competition, superiority and ego.

The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship,

empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

This same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person, also."

They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "which wolf will win?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "the one you feed."

1. The 1st wolf
Buddhists have a similar belief about which emotions win (ie. The ones you "feed")

They line the pockets of the corporate beasts, whose appetites can never be sated for the great god profit.
