Was not the Iraq war basically a conspiracy with neo-cons planning this and pushing for it way before Bush was "elected" ? Do not global central bankers talk to each all the time about ways to stabilize markets when they are under stress? Uh... Excuse me... But about that war .... Isn't there written proof of that in the "American's for a new Century" Didn't Hitler write a book talking about his plans as well? And yes, Paulson and other try and talk the markets up all the time. But don't we see that? As for the GDP don't we see the added imputations and hedonics? As for unemployment don't we see alternative measures that are much higher. Do we not see changes over time in methodology? But the all powerful PPT intervenes daily and there is no real trace of it even though someone could likely make a million bucks if he/she could expose it. Here is an exchange this AM from Heinz before I even saw your reply to me. Mish to Heinz: PPT Exposed I hope you find this hilarious. It's supposed to be. globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com A spoof "telepathic conversation" with "Bob" about the PPT (plunge protection team), Kennedy conspiracy theories, GATA (gold), and in fact conspiracies in general, all of which are poked fun at. Mish Reply from Heinz: absolutely! you've put your finger on the major flaws - namely how complicated those CT's are, and how apparently everybody involved has kept his mouth shut about them so far (an impossibility, which we can glean from the fact that the contents of the CIA's 'family jewels' collection were all well known in advance - due to the people involved NOT keeping their mouths shut).

"The New York Times is for us what Pravda was for the Soviets....America is a country full of conspiracy, and yet when you mention the word on television the interviewer giggles, so that people will think only nuts who believe in abduction by aliens believe in conspiracies. But don't they know they are being had? They are being lied to every day."--Gore Vidal (Observer magazine 12 Aug 2001) "Apparently, 'conspiracy stuff' is now shorthand for unspeakable truth."— Gore Vidal, from "The Enemy Within", 27 Oct 2002
