"More and more, we are discovering that positive reinforcement alters behavior massively more effectively than negative reinforcement".

This would all depend upon the "alpha mentality" of the society you were attempting to apply it on. Positive reinforcement, acted upon individuals conditioned to negative reinforcement, is almost always interpreted as submissive behavior, and likewise manipulated by the individual or society to meet their needs or offer them a path of least resistance. It seldom alters their inherent perceived role in society and is subject to rapid reticence once unattended. As with anything else there are exceptions to the rule. The problem with some studies is they use the exception to justify the probability of its feasibility.
