The fight against the Behvaiour modification industry has been going on for thirty years or more with little to show for it.
The damage that these places do is well known, there in massive amounts of information available for the casual browser, let alone the concerned parent. The number of authoritative academic articles that condemn these places continues to grow apace, we have prime time TV coverage and the attention of the main stream media.
So the public have been informed. They know the truth (and I don't by the 'I didn't know' excuse for a second.)
Then we look to the law. There is no pending legislation that covers this topic except the Miller act, unfortunately that's been waylaid in the comittee for Africa and international human rights where it will languish until it dies.
The attorney general refuses to investigate, Bush enacts legislation to make matters worse.
So we have the situation, the public knows the truth, the government knows the truth and for some strange reason no one seems to care. The industry is growing by 25 percent a year and shows no sign of slowing, WWASPS are opening up new academies and signing up more children and this year their after tax profits will exceed ninety two million dollars.
We are losing laides and gentlemen, the situation is getting worse and we're running out of ideas.
What do we try now?
