It's no secret that Americans are undertaking a quiet revolution against President Obama's autocratic way of governance and the heavy regulatory atmosphere that has resulted. So what's a president to do?
This sounds like something out of the novel 1984 where certain thoughts were crimes and Big Brother hovered ominously over everyone. However, it's happening now. President Obama has instructed agencies to employ psychologists who are supposed to figure out ways to placate the populace. See Obama orders federal agencies to hire psychologists to see the executive order. Here's the intro to that order:
A growing body of evidence demonstrates that behavioral science insights -- research findings from fields such as behavioral economics and psychology about how people make decisions and act on them -- can be used to design government policies to better serve the American people.
Or make the people more obedient.
Well, it has worked before. Psychologists were Obama's secret weapon in the 2012 election.
