Freedom Outpost
People, in general, are not that complicated. Sure you have anomalies in this regard, but overall humans are fairly predictable. One of the individuals who really grasped this concept, and shared it with many governments and corporations, was Edward Bernays. If you haven’t read his ground-breaking book, Propaganda, try to purchase a copy before the day is out. It’s a fairly small book, and a fairly quick read. Looks like you can read it online here. As I stated earlier, Bernays worked closely with some of the largest corporations in the world (GM, GE, etc…), to shape advertising campaigns that would result in increased sales, and increased brand recognition.
Bernays, perhaps more than anyone before or since, was responsible for converting the human psychological condition into dollars. He did this mainly through psychological conditioning; as he was known as “the father of public relations.” As I also stated previously, Bernays worked with governments as well, although I do not have a specific list of his clients. However, one would be foolish not to see the potential crossover of propaganda used for increased sales, to propaganda used for increased government.
It`s been an on-going project for thousands of years.
