"Through this case study, the author explores how a large number of participants inside an organization will willingly participate in organizational acts that are harmful to others, and how large numbers of outsiders, who may or may not be victims of organizational activities, are unable to determine illegal or harmful activity by an organization." Truly unsettling. Everyday Americans secretly exploited by their own government. If this were punishment for a crime, it would be unconstitutional due to being cruel, inhumane, and without due process. But it wasn't punishment for anything, the government just attacked them.

From the timeline on page 253: 1944 - Army Medical Corps authorize Rochester to study polonium exposure on humans (Moss, et al, 196) April 10, 1945 - The first human plutonium injection occurs in Oak Ridge; three others were “approved” for Chicago, Berkeley/San Francisco, and Los Alamos by Dr. Friedell at Oak Ridge (under Langham‟s instruction), Hamilton, and Warren. (Moss, et al, 195) April 26, 1945 - Second human plutonium injection takes place in a 68-year old man at Billings Hospital in Chicago (Moss, et al, 197). May 14, 1945 - Third person injected with plutonium at the University of California Hospital in San Francisco (Moss, et al, 197). October 1945-July 1946 - Eleven patients were injected with plutonium at Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester, NY; this included seven men and four women ranging in age from 18 years through 68 years old. The 18-year old died approximately 1.5 years later (Moss, et al, 205).

  Don't forget 751 pregnant women given radioactive vitamins. They claim only 3 kids died, but destroyed a bunch of documentation in the 70s, so the actual conclusions were probably far more damning.

Sounds a lot like a certain pandemic, and haphazard vaccine program that was mandated afterwards.

  I would argue there goes a long way between these incidents and what you imply
