On the importance of balanced view points

We all know that it is easy to be taken in by a good story. That the same facts are presented one way by one group and another by a different group.
It is useful to, if possible, see a different line of thinking as well.
For example I have long argued that Donald Trump is helping the rich get richer and is deceiving the poorer folks - and those folks are likely to get really upset when they find out they were taken for idiots.
Have a good read of this story. Some useful information here in my opinion.
Worth considering.
