Do You Really Want to Know?

In my humble opinion, the more people know and the longer they have to get used to the "idea" of what they know, the easier things will be whenever whatever happens.

That sounds a bit "round the houses" and I hope it gets across what I'm trying to say.

I personally would prefer to know everything.

We have the right to know. Who are they to decide how much knowledge we should have. We have a good idea anyway whats going on. I am a believer in a higher form of intelligence. Not just the Government but the Vatican knows plenty.

It depends if the majority of the public like a government's leader, if so, secrets are ok.  If not, people tend to demand to know every little detail (and how much did it cost).

Lips! Awesome question!

Sounds just like the 2012 trailer. what if the govt knew this would happen and what would they tell 6 billion people? They wouldn't and frankly, that's a good reason as I believe civil unrest would engulf the world.

"We're going to die in 3-5 years, so what does it matter if I commit offenses? I'll be dead soon" Lawlessness would break out, people murdered, raped, and abused. The law would no longer exist

Like when the cops (In Montreal Canada) went on strike and soon your average normal citizen was stealing what they could. Such would be everywhere on the planet.

So yes, I'd rather not have everyone know this. But you can tell me, I can keep a secret!

Whether it's secret or not, I think we have right to know  even if it's not all good means...
it's always better to prepare with knowledge than finding out while or after dealing with a disaster.

What makes them privileged? We live in the same world and have a right to know all that goes on as it pertains to us. For all they know, one of us could have the answer.

If we were clued in from the beginning, there would be no fear of the unknown and mass chaos.
I personally want to be in the know.

tough question im not sure if i would like to know  8'|
