As a marketing professional in the 21st Century and a political watcher, I thought this was one of the best documentaries I've ever watched. I loved pychology in high school and college, and believe I learned more about America, People and Politics with this documentary than I have in 45 years of education and growing up in this society. GREAT JOB! What will our next controlling party do to control our society? Better yet what will they be able to accomplish for our country. If I were President, I'd first stick my fist down GM, Ford and other American automakers throat and ask them what the @%$#*& they've been doing for the last 50 years to develop a car that gets 98 mpg? And how come? Then I'd tell the Saudi's, Iran that my beliefs are based on turning my cheak, motivated by Global Peace and individual freedom and the persuit of happiness, but my motto is "Lock and Load!" Scott L.

Like "The Power of Nightmares," this is a history lesson that every American should see. Good documentary/questionable quality 4 lindaped 2006-01-17 06:39:08 2006-01-17 06:39:08 Talk about peeling the onion. Curtis slowly and methodically shows us how the teachings of Freud and his theories influenced and then were employed by corporations and governments to manage society. A stunning revelation that makes you wonder how really free we are. peeling the onion... 4 jcjslacker 2006-04-26 14:12:30 2006-04-26 14:12:30 Excellent. And this is only the 1st of 4.

Well researched, entertaining use of archive footage and the cold hard facts about why it's right to be cycnical about capitalism. The marketeers are fighting an anti-humanitarian dis-information war. This is a good place to start for people who want to build their defences. Be warned, if you live in a bubble, prepare yourself for a wake up call.
