Eisenhower Also Predicted Fake Science, Virus Lockdowns, Big Tech, and Leftist Colleges

"In 1961, on his way out the White House door, President Dwight Eisenhower gave his Farewell Address.  Or what has come to be known as the “Military-Industrial Complex” speech.

It became thusly known because historians are almost entirely Leftist.  Leftists don’t like the military.  And Leftists like (while only selectively presenting) what Eisenhower had to say about it:

“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.  We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.”

...Our Leftist historians stopped there in Eisenhower’s speech.  

Eisenhower did not:

“...Today, the solitary inventor tinkering in his shop has been overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields.

“In the same fashion the free university – historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery – has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research......The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded...

...And Eisenhower foresaw government poison spreading to poison the private sector.  Again:

“(W)e must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.”

A “scientific-technological elite?”  Big Tech, anyone?...Read all!
