LaRouche Movement Launches Campaign To Ban HMOs

by Marianna Wertz

Trying to get a “better deal” under the thumb of the Health Maintenance Organizations, is like trying to cut a better deal with the Nazis under Hitler. The time is now come, to ban HMOs entirely, and replace them with an approach modelled on the 1946 Hill-Burton Act.

The Proposed ‘Right to High-Quality Health Care Act’

Anyone who holds public office, is going to have to back this bill, or they won’t be in office for long.

Commission To Be Formed Against the ‘New Violence’

by Dennis Speed

A type of violence, most efficiently identified with the virus of computer-kill-simulation games used to brainwash police trainees, very young children, and adolescents, has emerged, designed to drown any effective political resistance to the impending collapse of the financial oligarchy’s global system. EIR is publishing articles directed toward arming the American population with the conceptual weapons needed to combat what Lyndon LaRouche has termed the “New Violence.”

From Cybernetics to Littleton: Techniques of Mind Control  

by Jeffrey Steinberg

To understand the roots of the new programmed terrorism, it is necessary to go back to World War II and the immediate postwar period, when there was a concerted effort launched, by the Frankfurt School and the London Tavistock Institute, to use the Marxist/Freudian perversion of psychology and other social sciences, as instruments for mass social control and brainwashing. The two pillars of this assault were cybernetics and the drug counterculture.

by Uwe Friesecke

by Nancy Spannaus
