Who told you that? What was the frame of his observation?

[These days it seems most people get their information from "telling," not by "studying." In short, "others" tell them how and what to think.]

I'm focusing on the authority of your "ALL" statement here.

Just sniffing around the edges, your statement sounds like an ideological one. That is, not something based in the direct observation and experience of you, by you.

So, what are we talking about?
