Sweeping generalization there, oh well, not surprising this is ATS
what makes you think the library would have that book in, books like these are more cult classics.
I'd have to go there tomorrow, enquire about the book...and if they don't have it...wait a few weeks for them to get it
Knowledge is put on hold.
When i could easily just watch it online.
Ahh logic, the enemy of the idiot...

I highly recommend reading the book. You can't get whats in that book out of an interview. Not even close.
The "dumbed down" find it easier to watch a video than to read a book.
Generally followed with hours of video gaming...
I read that book a while back. Some interesting ideas, even if I don't agree with everything in it.
Worth reading, in any case.

I may not agree with everything she herself says. But the quotes in the book are hardly deniable since they come straight from those peoples mouths. No hearsay. That's what I liked about it.

Well, technically, since we read them in her book, as opposed to hearing them first hand, the quotes are hearsay. I know what you're saying, though. (I think. I am, after all, pretty "dumbed down") I didn't check the accuracy of every quote used, but for the sake of the book I assumed they were accurate, as I didn't plan on basing any major decisions on the contents.
Like I said, definitely worth reading....for those who still can.

I actually had to use the library to find a few of them. Horror of horrors.
Test score increases have been continuous and approximately linear from the earliest years of testing to the present. For the Raven's Progressive Matrices test, subjects born over a 100 year period were compared in Des Moines, Iowa, and separately in Dumfries, Scotland. Improvements were remarkably consistent across the whole period, in both countries.[1] This effect of an apparent increase in IQ has also been observed in various other parts of the world, though the rates of increase vary.[2]
EDITOR'S NOTE: It's all in the family. FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg, her father David Hamburg and her mother Beatrix Hamburg are all proud eugenicists, having served as directors of the American Eugenics Society (for obvious reasons, renamed the Society for the Study of Social Biology, SSSB). They believe that culling the useless eaters (population reduction) is very important to the agenda of the New World Order. That's why the FDA has been unleashed to rape and pillage in America...
The family that preys together stays together. "When Margaret Hamburg joined her parents in 1994 as one of the all-time youngest members of NIH, she said, 'There was a sense of real fun that the father-mother-daughter constellation had been formed.'" Real fun? Making sure the schwatzas don't reproduce? That's lotsa fun.)
(August 12, 2011) Today we published an extremely important article on the FDA and their connection the the modern day eugenics movement.
As we continue to see the FDA attack healthy foods by carrying out armed raids against raw food buying clubs while at the same approving toxic chemicals such as aspartame and MSG to be used in our food, one has to wonder WHY?

Yeah, we get them all the time. Like "the government has already dumbed you down".
what makes you think the library would have that book in, books like these are more cult classics.
That's where I found it. Go figure...
I'd have to go there tomorrow, enquire about the book...and if they don't have it...wait a few weeks for them to get it
Yeah, that's how it works.
Knowledge is put on hold.
When i could easily just watch it online.
Got a link to that? The video of the book on-line?
I'm obviously too "dumbed down" to find it.
Ahh logic, the enemy of the idiot...
What's illogical about saying you should read a book?
Or that books are found in the library?
I guess we have different definitions of "logic".
No surprise, considering how "dumbed down" we are...

As I noted in my earlier post. It's FREE. You can download it from her website.
ETA: The link to her website is also in my earlier post.edit on 9/4/2011 by Klassified because: (no reason given)

It's not criminalization that makes people dumb. Things such as junk food and soft drinks, food additives, fluoride, chemtrails, television, video games, some websites, etc., are what make people dumb. The OP did not say that every single person on the planet is dumb, they said, "When the world population has a large majority of people who are dumb, slow, sick, fat, and crippled, they lose intelligence..."
Large majority, not every single person. Criminalization of Calculus and Algebra would have nothing to do with the majority of the population getting dumber.
