Truthfully, I wouldn’t rather want anything but the truth. If the truth is hard work, that is what I want. Many things in life are “easier/cheaper/shortcuts, etc.” that I actually do not want because it cheapens the quality of the thing.
I get that you are providing understanding of what it seems most of the voting American public wants, though.
Yeah but if your desire is “Give me the truth” and you don’t know which one the truth is, you can still have that innate preference for which one is the truth, and that preference can and will subconsciously bias you towards one answer. Maybe you are truly one of the enlightened and you have the will and ability to resist that bias, but many, most people don’t have that ability. And thinking, or wishing that most people did have that ability is just yet another example of an answer you prefer to be true.
