It took me all of about 15 minutes to come up with that although I 've been thinking about it for a long time and will probably get involved in shareholder rights' groups when I have a bit more time.

I like to keep away from conspiracy theory because it tends to attract whackos and keep away the masses that need to be on board to create change.

Look right here on SI and you have a thread with devotees claiming that Bush did 9/11. The truth to 9/11 will never come out while there are deflection targets such as these.

I think rather than a plan, it's more that certain people will always take advantage of loopholes and will conspire to grab wealth without the hard work that most of us need to get by in our respective endeavors. As they "get away with it," the next trick has to be more risky with more return. Our "regulators" are too busy shuffling paper and covering their posteriors that they won't rock the boat and get to the real bottom line.

I've not thought carefully enough about each point you make to agree or disagree, but I think you are on the right track.

That was my thought exactly.... On the surface, seemed to be well thought out...
