In the book Trust Us We're Experts, the authors pull together some compelling data describing the science of creating public opinion in America. They trace modern public influence back to the early part of the last century, highlighting the work of guys like Edward L. Bernays, the Father of Spin. Bernays took the ideas of his famous uncle Sigmund Freud himself, and applied them to the emerging science of mass persuasion.

It's important not to unthinkingly trust what you hear, whether the information comes from the government, from a corporation, or from another source.

Do your own research, listen to all sides, and come to your own conclusions.

The U.S. government has certainly covered up information throughout history, including the potential dangers of vaccines and the risks of aspartame. But does that mean the information presented in this video is all true? Not necessarily. If you're concerned about this issue, look for more sources of information, and get the full story.

You should take control of your own mind, just as you should take control of your own health.

On Vital Votes, Dr. Matthew Loop from Lilburn, Georgia is worried by the implications of HAARP:

"As quantum physics and electromagnetic science have confirmed, HAARP makes it possible to control the human brain, modify the weather, and perform many other 'Star Wars' tasks! This is pretty frightening if you are aware of all the propaganda that is spread from Big Brother on a regular basis. We are told, in a similar fashion like the children that were sprayed with DDT years ago, that this technology is harmless. As a student of science, I'm not convinced!"

However, Mac from Coventry, Connecticut is not convinced:

"I don't know why HAARP is getting all this attention. Just a cursory look at the information available turns up many ionospheric heaters around the world, some just as powerful as HAARP ... I suspect a combination of Alaskans having an issue with this site operating for local reasons, then the 'Area 51 trilateral commission' fans join in, and Hollywood money and media attention makes it a powerful story. But as far as I can tell that's just what it is: a story."
