Well, yeah, but it's not just that w/ the pedegree of the funding that's rollin' in this year. And aren't there some education finance companies advertising to troubled parents on various industry websites?
Art Barker had his slice of Bobby DuPont's NIDA funding as far back as the very early `70's. This was a fulfilment of his stated objective to use public funding to spread the Synanon method accross the land. You must know, at least I hope you do, the pedegree of WWASP, CEDU, the Seed and Elan's "program", right? It's a synanon. Switch out the stage dressing; warehouse, boarding school, remote rustic campsite or some other scene. What you have left is a synanon.
When that funding was cut off, following Sam Ervin's report (yes,
that Sam Ervin of Watergate fame) on the Federal Role in Behavior Modification
explicitly comparing The Seed to Korean POW indoctrination, why they just went below the radar for a year or two, reincorporated under a new name and proceeded to launder their federal funding through Law Enforcement Assistance Agency.
They then proceeded to hand out ambassadorships and cabinet level appointments to their cronies who founded and ran Straight, Inc. once they'd already sacrificed their firstborn to The Seed. Not just the Semblers, either. Donald Ian MacDonald was just a local pediatrician till he put his son in the Program and landed up as Federal drug czar.
Do you (and your pals) get that? You're asking the Federal Government to regulate and legislate in an area where we're the apostates. Not saying you can't win. Just that, if you intend to win, you should brush up on the other team and their players and history.
My biggest worry about this whole thing is NOT the intentions behind it. It's that ya'll are bringing a knife to a gun fight and you're already predisposed to villainies anyone who tries to tip you off.
It is the absolute right of the state to supervise the formation of public opinion.
