Nah, ya have to go back to Eisenhower and McCarthy and the beginning of the 
"fear" era.  That's when folks started buying into the b.s. and allowing the 
government to do their thinking for them.  The real cradle to grave 
mentality began then.

Hey, what can I say.  Public schools have been very successful in their true 
purpose.  They can't teach reading, riting and rithmatic worth beans but 
they sure can do the indoctrination of sheople with great skill!
