Despite the fact that people can learn to "pass" the polygraph, and innocent people are increasingly becoming victimized by it, it somehow persists.

The government has conceded to the fact that you can mentally prepare yourself to "pass" a polygraph by prosecuting @DougWilliams_PG.

I'll bet the abuse of innocent people will be its ultimate downfall. Congress enacted the Employee Polygraph Protection Act in 1988 explicitly to prohibit abuse by polygraph. Here we are 30 years later, and the polygraph lobby controls Congress. By allowing the government an exemption to the Law, they have essentially opened the door to institutionalized fraud, waste, and pernicious abuse. It is truly unconscionable, but I have to believe that someone with a conscious is starting to pay attention.
