An observational perspective to the many WTS lies and offer an answer to why ?
Is that it is a religious publishing house operating at its core, people are collectively lured into this publishing organization given the labeling identity that the distribution of the WTS's own publications is doing god's work in preaching the goods news of the new Kingdom to come and a guiding social directive to appeal to god's judgmental approval.
Of course the WTS sets people up they way the WTS wants its devoted members to socially behave, which was most ly to support the WTS in its endeavor to lure more people to the organization. More people controlled equates to more power and more money.

Actually that's already being covered Miles by the WTS, they say that some of the anointed have been cast out of heaven by god making way for others and that many partaking now days are mentally diseased individuals.
Yes that's what the WTS recently said.
ummmmm ........ that's good righteous bullshit aint it though.

The message to young people was not to bother with furthering their education. The message to the parents of those young people was, since the end is so close, don't worry about saving for your retirement.
The guys who wrote that stuff were taken care of in their old age by our parents donations and they all died. Unfortunately many of their JW followers banked on not ever growing old or ever needing anything for retirement. At least we were young enough to recover from that part of it even if our earning potential was diminished by listening to this man made directive about education.

I distinctly remember a Circuit Overseer making a comment, in a talk at a Circuit Assembly---back in 1973---about the "closeness" of the "Great Tribulation" and Armageddon. He likened our time that we were in then, in 1973, as the functioning of an alarm clock. An alarm clock, he stated, right before it strikes the hour, will make a distinct "click", right before the alarm sounds off. So, right now, he stated, we were in that split second between the "click" and the alarm sounding. Yeah...right. Best Regards, all.!
