98.5% of people when they
Enter a supermarket do the
Same thing, the same figure
Can be applied to consumers
Of Main Street Media. Social
Scientists are employed by
All corporate institutions to
Assess common denominators
Of the mindless masses. Lost
Leader marketing is the term.
Items such as staples are hidden
Because you need therefore find
Whereas that which you do not
Need is high viz and at eye level.
Truth (to whom it matters) is not
Gaily wrapped nor is it at eye level.
But as only 1.5% of the population
Search for it you most likely are
Unaware what it is that 98.5% do
In the supermarket. And why even
Bother to find out?  Baaa
