Personality By Prescription

Personality By Prescription

Today's drugs can turn you on or off, bend your mind and alter your perception, but tomorrow's will do everything from curtailing your need for sleep to boosting your intellect and even reshaping your psyche

Psychochemistry - Personality By PrescriptionAs anyone can plainly see, this is one of mankind's strangest eras. On the one hand, all is pessimism: The world is plagued by violence, starvation,  overpopulation and alienation. Yet never have so many well-informed men been so rosily optimistic. There is a strong school of thought holding that all our problems are basically chemical and will soon yield to solution as readily as the question of what happens when two atoms of hydrogen join with an atom of oxygen, (In case you have forgotten, H2-fO=H20; namely, water. As simple as all that.)

It is typical of our era that Dr. Glenn Seaborg, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, should have taken time out from worrying about the atom to tell an audience of women, not entirely in jest, that they will soon have a marvelous "antigrouch pill" to sweeten the dispositions of their menfolk. (Presumably, it could be slipped into the unsuspecting male's morning coffee, like a lump ol sugar, to turn him from terrible tiger to purring kitten.) It is also typical that two other respected thinkers, one a scientist and one an author, should have placed the rather humorous-sounding antigrouch pill on a serious global basis.

The scientist, Dr. Heinz Lehmann of Canada's McGill University, has predicted an "anti-aggression drug" that will overcome what seem up to now to be the natural human tendencies to pick quarrels and to make war. The author, Arthur Koestler, claims in his The Ghost in the Machine that most of man's troubles are caused by a conflict between his "old brain," which controls his emotions, and his "new brain," which determines his thoughts; this gap will eventually be bridged by a drug that will give us all a "coordinated, harmonious state of mind," making us far too contented to fret or to fight.

There are also respected researchers on record as believing that man will soon have drugs that will cure his major mental disturbances, eliminate his fears and anxieties, keep him fat or lean at will, let him decide for himself how long, if at all, he cares to sleep, make him much smarter than ever before and even permit him to live longer. You name it and there is somebody—not a wild-eyed visionary but a sane and skeptical scientist—who believes it is just around the corner.

Are we really on the verge of a chemical breakthrough in the control of human personality? If you were a psychiatrist at a mental hospital, you would have to think so- You might be inclined to say, indeed, that the breakthrough has already been made. What has happened in the mental hospitals has taken place so rapidly and spectacularly that the events have outsped communications; they constitute one of the great untold and unappreciated stories of our time. Few people know about it except the veteran staff members who worked in the hospitals is the old days—meaning before about 1955—and who work there yet.

Interesting article showing you how for back they had the whole pharmaceutic industry all mapped out. This appears to have been propaganda meant for the intellectual establishment to promote the upcoming prescription drug culture as harmless, philanthropic and most definitely a benefit to society.

I went through and pulled most if not all the names of the doctors and scientists involved in this operation, for those interested in further research:

Hegedus, Dr. Mark D. Alischnle, Nobel Prize winner Dr. Linus Pauling, financier Jack Dreyfus. Jr, Swedish scientist Holger Hyden, Dr. Samuel Bogoch, UCLA psychologist Allan Jacobson, University of Michigan psychologist James V. McConnell, University of California psychologist Dr. David Krech, University of Southern California Medical School Dr. John Brie Holmes, Dr. James L.

Very interesting.  Coincidentally, just a few minutes ago got this e-mail from Jon Rappoport about CIA drug goals in the 1950's.  As you read Rappoport's opening discussion, and then read the actual text from the CIA, you see that he hypes and exaggerates what "could be done" with these drugs, for which the CIA claim to have very specific and controlled and limited applications.  But, of course, once the drugs are developed they can be misused, which is what Rappoport is warning about.

The CIA: long-range planning for a drugged and debilitated society


The CIA: long-range planning for a drugged and debilitated society 

by Jon Rappoport
July 4, 2015

(To read about Jon's mega-collection, The Matrix Revealed, click here.)

"Long ago, I interviewed John Marks, author of http://amzn.to/1M0lxinSearch for the Manchurian Candidate, the book that exposed the CIA's MKULTRA mind-control program.  He told me that in 1962, when MKULTRA supposedly ended, the CIA actually transferred the program to its Office of Research and Development, where it went completely dark.  A CIA representative told Marks there were a hundred boxes of material on the 'new' MKULTRA, and he, Marks, would never see any of it, no matter how many FOIA requests he made."  (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)

"Plans for guiding the world can be formed and launched a long, long time before we see the results.  Don't assume cause and effect are merely and only short-term.  That's an unwarranted idea."  (The Underground)

Drugs to transform individuals...and even, by implication, society.

Drug research going far beyond the usual brief descriptions of MKULTRA.

The intention is there, in the record.

A CIA document was included in the transcript of the 1977 US Senate Hearings on MKULTRA, the CIA's mind-control program.

The document is found in Appendix C, starting on page 166. It's simply labeled "Draft," dated 5 May 1955.

It begins: "A portion of the Research and Development Program of [CIA's] TSS/Chemical Division is devoted to the discovery of the following materials and methods:"

What followed was a list of hoped-for drugs and their uses.

I'm printing, below, the list of the 1955 intentions of the CIA regarding their own drug research. The range of those intentions is stunning. All statements are direct quotes from the "Draft" document.

Some of my comments gleaned from studying the list:

The CIA wanted to find substances which would "promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness." Serious consideration should be given to the idea that psychiatric medications, food additives, pesticides, and industrial chemicals (like fluorides) would eventually satisfy that requirement.

The CIA wanted to find chemicals that "would produce the signs and symptoms of recognized diseases in a reversible way." This suggests many possibilities---among them the use of drugs to fabricate diseases and thereby give the false impression of germ-caused epidemics.

The CIA wanted to find drugs that would "produce amnesia." Ideal for discrediting whistleblowers, dissidents, certain political candidates, and other investigators. (Scopolamine, for example.)

The CIA wanted to discover drugs which would produce "paralysis of the legs, acute anemia, etc." A way to make people decline in health as if from diseases.

The CIA wanted to develop drugs that would "alter personality structure" and thus induce a person's dependence on another person. How about dependence in general? For instance, dependence on institutions, governments?

The CIA wanted to discover chemicals that would "lower the ambition and general working efficiency of men." Sounds like a general description of the devolution of society.

As you read the list yourself, you'll see more implications/possibilities.

Here, from 1955, quoted verbatim from the Agency document, are the types of drugs the MKULTRA men at the CIA were looking for: 

* Substances which will promote illogical thinking and impulsiveness to the point where the recipient would be discredited in public.

* Substances which increase the efficiency of mentation and perception.

* Materials which will prevent or counteract the intoxicating effect of alcohol.

* Materials which will promote the intoxicating effect of alcohol.

* Materials which will produce the signs and symptoms of recognized diseases in a reversible way so that they may be used for malingering, etc.

* Materials which will render the induction of hypnosis easier or otherwise enhance its usefulness.

* Substances which will enhance the ability of individuals to withstand privation, torture and coercion during interrogation and so-called "brain-washing".

* Materials and physical methods which will produce amnesia for events preceding and during their use.

* Physical methods of producing shock and confusion over extended periods of time and capable of surreptitious use.

* Substances which produce physical disablement such as paralysis of the legs, acute anemia, etc.

* Substances which will produce "pure" euphoria with no subsequent let-down.

* Substances which alter personality structure in such a way that the tendency of the recipient to become dependent upon another person is enhanced.

* A material which will cause mental confusion of such a type that the individual under its influence will find it difficult to maintain a fabrication under questioning.

* Substances which will lower the ambition and general working efficiency of men when administered in undetectable amounts.

* Substances which promote weakness or distortion of the eyesight or hearing faculties, preferably without permanent effects.

* A knockout pill which can surreptitiously be administered in drinks, food, cigarettes, as an aerosol, etc., which will be safe to use, provide a maximum of amnesia, and be suitable for use by agent types on an ad hoc basis.

* A material which can be surreptitiously administered by the above routes and which in very small amounts will make it impossible for a man to perform any physical activity whatsoever.

That's the list.

At the end of this 1955 CIA document, the author [unnamed] makes these remarks:

"In practice, it has been possible to use outside cleared contractors for the preliminary phases of this [research] work. However, that part which involves human testing at effective dose levels presents security problems which cannot be handled by the ordinary contactors.

"The proposed [human testing] facility [deletion] offers a unique opportunity for the secure handling of such clinical testing in addition to the many advantages outlined in the project proposal. The security problems mentioned above are eliminated by the fact that the responsibility for the testing will rest completely upon the physician and the hospital. [one line deleted] will allow [CIA] TSS/CD personnel to supervise the work very closely to make sure that all tests are conducted according to the recognized practices and embody adequate safeguards."

In other words, this was to be ultra-secret. No outside contractors at universities for the core of the experiments, which by the way could be carried forward for decades.

A secret in-house facility.

Over the years, more facilities could be created.

If you examine the full range of psychiatric drugs developed since 1955, you'll see that a number of them fit the CIA's agenda. Speed-type chemicals, which addle the brain over the long term, to treat so-called ADHD. Anti-psychotic drugs, to render patients more and more dependent on others (and government) as they sink into profound disability and incur motor brain damage. And of course, the SSRI antidepressants, like Prozac and Paxil and Zoloft, which produce extreme and debilitating highs and lows---and also push people over the edge into committing violence.

These drugs drag the whole society down into lower and lower levels of consciousness and action.

If that's the goal of a very powerful and clandestine government agency...it's succeeding.

That's a great follow up to the article and it really puts together an entire picture of what was and probably still is going on. I just wish that since Rappaport would name some names instead of using the catch-phrases "CIA" and "MK-Ultra."

Since Rappaport has been on the vaccine/big pharma trail for so long, he has to know the names of the people who were and are are responsible for the programs figure out how to make people sick.
