Most of what is being done to divert our attention is done to turn us into beasts of burden 'til death. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Hardly, Mr. Carlton. I am guilty of lacking sufficient cheer. But one of the causes is a statement like Mr.(or Ms.) McLaughlin's. Just how would you explain her sentence? What is her meaning?
