Ray, apropos mind control. One can't beat the experiments done by Stanley Milgram in the 1960s to show that the fundamental problem is simply obedience to authority, any authority. And the "better" the child/soldier, the more he/she obeys and the more heinous are the deeds they will do. wisdomquotes.com >>>The disappearance of a sense of responsibility is the most far-reaching consequence of submission to authority.<<< stanleymilgram.com >>>[Milgram] found, surprisingly, that 65% of his subjects, ordinary residents of New Haven, were willing to give apparently harmful electric shocks-up to 450 volts-to a pitifully protesting victim, simply because a scientific authority commanded them to, and in spite of the fact that the victim did not do anything to deserve such punishment. <<<
