You lost me at "unjust death... is not any different than murder..." Those are clearly different things to me. Maybe I'm misunderstanding you?

If a nation's military kills you for profit, that is no different than murder. But our healthcare lobbies also kill people, as do the banks and Fed. That is what I was trying to get at with a general statement, but failed to say accurately.
Also, 'mainstream bias,' for lack or a better term, is still bias. Unjust death and arbitrary transfers of wealth via the military, healthcare lobbies, Wall St, and the Fed Reserve are not any different than murder or theft, they're just part of our economy and education, and our mainstream media sings their praises(it's true of all the mainstream media outlets): https://theintercept.com/2016/09/09/wolf-blitzer-is-worried-...
