I have to wonder ... with such a straight-forward value-neutral explanation of the coercive use of these behavior modificaiton techniques, I really have to wonder, is there  the bigger agenda here beyond forcing "positive" change for the good of one individual?

Why are these programs supported by law makers, schools, religious instituions and the general public?  Is it simply economics - putting the the almighty dollar and profits ahead of humanity?  
 
But even possibility that does not supply a rational reason for this societies continued abuse of its citizens.

I hate to sound like a conspriracy nut, but when the whole issue is presented in such a straight forward manner, how can any thinking person NOT see the inherent danger?

We are the generation that this was first used on and let see where it got most of us? Sure, I think for the most part, supporters and non-suuporters alike, we're successful now, but what price did we pay to get where we are?  A big one. This is especially true for the persons who were NOT in need of any kind of behavior modification.  And how long did it take to undo the effects of this kind of programming? 1 year? 5 years? 10? 20?

GregFL:
Yeah its good.  Dr. Singer's list has been around for years, and when I first started seriously researching just what the hell it was that I was subjected thru, her writings helped turn the light on for me.

AS to Stripe's point:

First of all, I think it is amazing that our society tolerated freedom at all. For a brief shining hour, I think America did have the moral high ground, perhaps there is something to this 'greatest generation' nonsense. OK, not much tolerance of uppiddy blacks, feminazis, queers or hippies, but didn't the good guys always pull out the Bill of Rights at the dramatic moment in the movies? Wasn't it always the American soldier who would face court martial rather than betray his ideals? Didn't the evil Nazi prisoners always have their rights read to them? Weren't there high ideals, like justice, and truth, and humanity?

Remember "I Have a Dream"?

Then we had political assinations, Nixon, Vietnam and the demonization of the left. I think the dark forces are out to put the genii back in the bottle - freedom is too good for us today. You know, the streets are very clean in Singapore. Dictatorship has it's advantages. We're better off being stupid, controllable consumers of mass culture. Right?

Maybe I just have brain fever.

I think it was 118 minutes of celluloid
