Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly prove a deliberate, systematical plan of reducing us to slavery
Conspiracy Theory ?
Web Writer's comment:
Ever notice when the people claim conspiracy by government they are a nut-case, but when government charges a person, or group, they almost always add conspiracy as an additional charge?
For those that do not belive in conspiracies, read true detective stories, look at history, or check court records.
I do not look for conspiracies. However, I do believe people use the system to get what they want and hide illegal activity. Can anyone explain illegal aliens or illegal drugs every where without anyone knowing? Bad police work? According to ex-president Bush jr, try looking for illegal aliens in the shadows of a Bush. ! I know the police often add "conspiracy" as "part" of the charges. In simple form, a conspiracy is a plan made in secret. Even if done by government.
I see the results of government's actions. Debt, illegal aliens, chinese and United Nations controls. Secret meetings. Supporting dictators. And much more. May not be a conspriacy, but it is very bad management. Unless it is intended to be this way!
Honest deals are done in the open. Dishonest deals are not. When the media does not report and the people find out years later, when it is to late, It looks bad. It bears an investigation. Such as drugs, illegal aliens, spending, gangs, mafia, government corruption, and ethics to name a few. Most recently BATFE gun running, DHS buying almost all the ammunition, the NSA spying on citizens, and the IRS targeting selected political groups. Is there a pattern here?
Conspiracy or bad management ? America has major problems the people need to address now.
( Please note they use in the example below to "overthrow the government". They never use an example to control the people through government. )
