Yes I find that too. Not even exclusively in governmental fields either. There's some interesting theories out there on the purpose of modern art and why it got such heavy funding from the CIA. It is thought that by having the people look at modern art, which no one can ever really understanding the meaning of, makes people subconsciously believe that they are not smart enough to come to their own decisions and need a higher authority to explain things to them. Thus, subliminally reinforcing one's belief in the necessity of a state.

I haven't explained that too well, but I hope you know what I'm getting at. I wonder if there is anything to that.

And I'm glad you're liking the recent posts. Took a break for some time but I want to get back to sharing my thoughts a lot more often if I can.
