Mr Cameron now states that he intends to spend 2 million pounds of tax payer’s money on getting government statisticians to measure what makes people happy. The Behavioural Insight Team led by economist David Halpern claim that they will find intelligent ways to encourage people to make better choices for themselves, it will build on the ‘Mindspace’ report commissioned by the previous labour government. This looked at ways of changing people’s behaviour by influencing not just what they consciously think but also by influencing their automatic processes- cues from the subconscious, from the behaviour of people around them, and from emotional situations that affect their decisions. This is frightening! Ministers say public well being increases if people are given the impression that they control their lives. Ministers by manipulating choices will then give people the impression that they are in control of the choices they are making.
Cass Sunstein President Obamas regulation czar an ultra-left radical with seriously anti-democratic ideas has advocated that the government should secretly feed apparently independent commentators with information in order to dupe the public into believing such government propaganda because it purports to be the commentators own opinion. Beware, why is David Cameron taking notice of ideas from such a source?
