    Look who started the CIA. It wasnt the 99%. Look at the history of media control. Its all shadow puppetry.

      It was Truman, and the reason was to continue war time intelligence gathering in peace time.
      I don’t see any reason to be particular suspicious about the original motivation for it.
      The problem is that CIA has increased the political paranoia, and USA having the CIA has normalized similar intelligence agencies around the world.

      But absolute I agree, that today CIA is very far from serving the majority of the population, but has become a part of the industrial complex and serving the interests of the 1%.
