Ever hear of the Whitewater Cover-up, the WACO cover-up, the Ruby Ridge
cover-up, the Ron Brown crash cover-up, the OKC Bomb cover-up,
Iran-Contra, CIA Drug Running at the Mena airport, etc. etc.? How about
the failed war on drugs? FDA oppression and cover-up of the value of
nutrients in life extention, etc? Or the failed war on poverty.
Is everyone but Ian Goddard asleep on this list? Or reading nothing but
science books?
If Extropians are for self-ownership I find it hard to fathom if only a
few are aware that "self-ownership" far from complete in this increasingly
Statist society.
