On May 18, 1992, the birth of the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) was announced to the press, along with prominent mention of its sources of startup funding. United Press International reported that “more than $2 million” would come from the Carnegie Corporation of New York, “more than $5 million” from the Pew Charitable Trusts and the Rockefeller Foundation, and a single five-year, $8 million grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. This latter windfall represented the single largest grant in that foundation’s history (a $13-million-plus grant to CASA in 1998 would later raise the bar even higher).
... “Healthy People 2010” report put out by HHS in 2000. This federal plan sets ten-year targets for a variety of public health goals. Healthy People 2010 explicitly calls for a 9 percent across-the-board cut in alcohol consumption. Its predecessor, “Healthy People 2000,” demanded a cut in consumption by over 24 percent. Not just in underage drinking: the feds want less alcohol consumed, period.
This lines up well with CASA’s examination, in “Teen Tipplers,” of various strategies ostensibly targeted at “reducing underage drinking.” The policy options that CASA chose to explore include (in their own words):
Increase Alcohol Taxes
Restrict the social and commercial availability of alcohol;
Ban alcohol advertising on television;
Limit [the] numbers, locations, and hours of alcohol establishments;
Require prominent warning labels in all alcohol advertising.
...but the strategy in use here is obvious. In addition to recommending policies that specifically target underage drinkers (such as school-based prevention programs and expanded addiction treatment options), CASA is arguing for measures that would effectively limit the options of ADULTS, regardless of how responsibly they drink.[...]http://activistcash.com/organization_overview.cfm/o/318-national-center-on-addiction—substance-abuse
These Foundations funded somthing that was already being addressed w/ $400m. Why did they want to start another one? Probably to supply fraudelent data that would take away our freedoms and dampen Capitalism. Cloward-Piven Strategy. Obama was director of the Joyce Foundation in Chicago, and tried the same fraudulent data thing, only in his case it was to ban guns. It’s all for the common good!
It’s alright. As I said myself, what originally started for myself as a target on NPR’s funding revealed a huge rabbit hole for myself(as well as anybody else who sees this) that needs way more investigation. These foundations.

Sounds like a winner to me. It’s the typical bureaucratic entrenchment that leftists routinely do in government. They’re doing it in capitalism using foundations.
While your gut feeling on this is ultimately a gut feeling, I am in agreement with you and I’d bet that if further investigated, that’s exactly what this is/was for. Foundations seem to have become one of the left’s way of bureaucratizing our capitalist society.
Before america can heal all this corruption needs to be weeded out and exposed in the full sunlight.

Oligopolies each and every one.
