ABSTRACT

Three tenets of capitalism are: pay the lowest possible price, charge all the market will bear, and give nothing to anybody. History is written by the powerful to protect their wealth and power. The Social Control belief systems taught were philosophical tenets chosen for the protection of that society and/or its power structure, not philosophical tenets chosen by free thought to maximize the well-being of all within that society. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), with its worldwide "Mighty Wurlitzer" and with the support of other intelligence agencies, controlled the Western world's information systems. Many newly free and potentially democratic governments have been backed into a corner through covert activities by the major powers and forced to use repressive violence in attempting to avoid destabilization. The CIA could not have suppressed those worldwide breaks for freedom without the support of American citizens.
