| | | | Rational conspiracy theories.
Why isn't it more common to hear rational conspiracy theories.
I don't get it most theories typically require a great deal of cheap drugs to understand.
Yet there exists many conspiracy theories that have a high degree of plausibility.
1) US government has the ability to make low cost fusion power. The government spent billions researching the technology, so it's not improvable that they fear releasing the technology due to global security problems that could follow.
2) Alien signals have been intercepted by a government agency, however they are kept under raps due to the content of the message.
3) Behind the scenes power structures that we'll never know about.
4) Endless list of assassinations that the US government will not admit too.

Just my two cents. | It didn't need to be an inside job- it just needed to be let to "happen", much like the attack on Pearl Harbor, if you buy that story either. Those are quite different things.
You don't need much conspiracy-type thoughts to see the gov't kills folks at will, anyway lol. They do that all the time! |

Just my two cents. | Yeah, you and Rosie O'Donnell. Do "research" where? The internet? And how is it the government deemed to be so incompetent by many can successfully execute and cover up all this stuff?

|  | Just one more question | | Join Date: Aug 2011 Location: San Franciscco, CA | | Control of worldwide media is falling into the hands of fewer and fewer coporations/people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concent...edia_ownership
Is there a conspiracy by a few to dominate all media in the world? Or is it not a conspiracy but a situation that is happening? I don't know but either way I find it alarming.
