Hey buddy, I think I recognize your style. How ya been?


--- Quote from: "Guest" ---There has already been imprisonment of our own citizens with no evidence, who have been taken to places like Guantanamo Bay and subjected to inhumane treatment and interrogation methods.
These are all somewhat reminiscent of the rules and lifestyle at HLA (of course the government level is quite more extreme in nature as it affects the entire country on such a grand scale, and Guantanamo is obviously by far worse). I think the parallels are quite interesting and surely alarming.

And more than coincidental. I don't know who all is connected w/ HLA, CEDU, Palmer, Teen Challenge etc. but Straight, Inc. definitely went after the military brass agressively, especially in Virginia. I know of two Str8 vets that both did tours of duty in Guantanamo and Abu Graib. We also know they were doing medical research pretty openly by the mid 80's because they had an official director of medical research named Richard Schwartz. And I know this faction of the broader cult had great influence in DC as far back as `84 because Reagan appointed a totally unqualified Str8 parent, Donald Ian MacDonald, as head of the ONDCP in `87. Here's his biographical sketch showing the progression from joining that cult in Clearwater to a catapult to the halls of power in just a couple of short years:

Yeah, I'd say the powers that be know very well that they're using the same methods on enemy combatants as they do to stepfordize their own kids. What's more, I think they believe with full faith that they're doing the right thing. That's the scary part, that's why they'll torment us without end cause they do so with the leave of their own conscience.


--- Quote from: "Guest" ---I'm really not against capitalism in general, there just needs to be some kind of balance and more ethics investigations on everything. For the government to set it up to give the people more freedom and then allow all of the unethical behavior to go unnoticed, it goes right back to being harmful for society. The fact that corporate lobbyists have so much power over government and policy is most certainly destructive.

The best and most effective means of investigating anything is for the end consumer to do their own investigation. Few people do that anymore because, for generations now, we've labored under the illusion that some certification, licensing or other big brother agency is doing all the checking for is. These agencies and organizations, however well intended, are just not capable of making sound, sane consumer choices on a case by case basis as they need to be made. All they really accomplish is to concentrate that power into a few hands, which are always out for a gift from the lobbyists and to use that power to squeeze out any competition to their own cronies.

I saw this play out when I was a young struggling mother. In Florida, daycare was not seriously regulated when my eldest was a baby. It took me about 5 tries to find really good, affordable day-care for her, but it did exist. Seven years later, after a few years of Hillary's help, all the mom-n-pop operations had been put out of business. KinderCare was just about the only game in town. They SUCKED! Oh, sure they had the proper kind of flooring and wall treatments and the required square footage and certifications and licenses and all that bullshit. But there is no requirement anywhere in all that regulation for the people who work there to be people of quality who enjoy children and are good at taking care of them and keeping them happy and civil. And it cost over half my paycheck to use their services. But, of course, there's a safety net built into the whole Stalinist dream. One could sign up for income based child care through a county office, go on a six week waiting list and be assigned a daycare slot on the other side of the county for about what I had been paying for really good day care in our own neighborhood.

We have reached a point in our society where most people are domesticated like farm animals. They lack the natural instincts, habits and skills to look out for their own interests or those of their own young.

Hey Everyone, your posts have been so helpful lately. If anyone has been keeping up with the message board lately, they know I am a former employee of HLA. I have discussed some details with previous employers and professors in detail about advice. I have someone suggesting looking into the Division of Youth Services in Georgia. Any advice if this is appropriate or good? Also, and wrote an Email with details about what made me leave the school and my professor is forwarding it on to the Ethics chair Head in New Jersey for more advice and hopefully a reference of this chair head in GA. My professor told me this woman actually just published an article about therapeutic boarding schools and their inefficacy. More input would be helpful, thank you.

I haven't posted on here in a pretty long time so you're probably thinking of someone else?

I accidently said that the torture interrogation methods employed at places like Guantanamo affect the entire country... I meant world, lol.  (That was clearly a ridiculous mistake because those places aren't even in the US, and because that wouldn't only affect citizens of a single country.)
