This is a fact!!!!

We give these programs and their owners way to much credit. If the military was interested in Synanon or any other program it was for their purposes and they would not be sharing their conclusions.
So we speculate, which in and of itself is interesting but lets call it what it is.
Wayne brings up the most interesting question I had heard in months. Who the hell gave Elan permission to have a ring, spankings, haircuts (screaming at another), GM's. Every state and many parents knew.
I can only speak during the 70's on this. Please don't don't let state of Illinois, R.I or New York fool you by their actions. They knew exactly what was going on. Marvin Schwartz (Ill.) played a big part in comforting parents that Elan was a great place during the fiasco in 1975. The powers to be wanted to save their asses.
There is a large population of legislators both state and federal who believe the abuse that goes on in these programs is justified. Much has not changed IMO in 40 years with this sentiment.
Exposer is the only way. The politicians in Maine who approved this abuse need to be named publicly and so on with every state.

Your persistence, lack of familiarity with the facts, counterintuitive speculation, and demonstrably incorrect assertions made it seem like you had a disinfo agenda, but it is clear now that you just want someone to pay attention to you.

They spanked us with a paddle in Catholic school. The priests beat us with belts. It was pretty common to have outsiders do it to your kids then

Experiments or not, I want to know what happened. I think we all deserve that. I may never find the truth but I'm not going to stop looking

Being a State kid from Rhode Island I can only assume that they signed off on it, if by idle complicity at the very least.  My parents knew and they were
for it. They signed me over with no conditions.
