Well BCI
I agree with the theme of your posting, which is that informed debate the bedrock of democracy is much better than scare tactics and propaganda.
Simply because those that use "propaganda" have no real argument against the thing they oppose, what they do have is a vested interest that has probably gone on too long.
However, there is one good thing about the times we now live in as opposed to how things were in the recent past.
We now have the Internet and a world of information at our fingertips, lying politicians, those that peddle scares and propaganda should no longer have any affect on us because we can find out what is really going on if we choose to, but we have to choose to.
