Government Education


Bertrand Russell

“The Impact of Science on Society”

From “Beware Sensitivity Training”
Phoebe Courtney, 1969

Page 95 -96


“I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology….

It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything, if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the state with money and equipment.  This subject will make great strides when it is taken up by scientists under a scientific dictatorship…

Various results will soon be arrived at.  First, that the influence of home is obstructive.  Second that not much can be done unless indoctrination begins before the age of ten.”

 (LDL  Sounds like "Head Start."

“When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen.”””
