Alright, I have a conspiracy theory. This "Depression" was actually put in action by JoeyDay himself! He wanted to clean the boards up, so made it look like MHG did it!* *Note: Yes this is a joke. But if it turns out this is true, let the record show I said it first

For all of those people who say the government did 9/11 and/or it was faked, listen/read to this. Almost 3000 people died on September 11. Almost all of them were Americans. About a thirtieth (50) people jumped from the towers. What kind of government would kill 3000 of their own people. Dick Chaney with a Shotgun maybe, but the entire Congress? I doubt it. |

The government just didn't know what the heck was going to happen. So they did nothing. If that's what an inside job is, then it was one. |

I personally believe the whole 9/11 "Inside Job" theory bears absolutely no merit. For one thing, we already know the foreign powers who planned it and instigated it, Al-Qaeda. So why would anyone think that our own people were the ones responsible? Oh, sure. There have been a few internet movies claiming that it was accomplished not by the hijacked aircraft, but by missiles or some other crap. But most of that "footage" has already been proven fake anyway. |

Maddox made a really good point - if 9/11 was really any sort of "Inside Job" that stoned out kid that made Loose Change and his family + friends would all be dead, easily. |

They would have just removed "Loose Change". [s]The Government controls everything we post anyway.[/s] No we don't. Also, Ty, remember to pick up your dry cleaning tomorrow. You were supposed to pick it up yesterday before you went home. |

I seriously believe that 9/11 was an inside job to some extent. No. Anyway. I don't think conspiracy theories are going to go away any time soon, sadly. The nature of humans is to be paranoid and blame the ruling class on any hardship or tragedy that may come upon us. People are dumb. |

That is not a conspiracy theory because it is true. |

Unless some cabal is watching crab boats to see if someone opens the wrong end of a can, then torpedoes the boat on which it happens. |

The other day I've been thinking of the "light bulb conspiracy". Y'know, the one where it's claimed that they've invented light bulbs that never go out (or at least have very long lifespans), but the companies never make them because they'd make a lot less money since nobody would need replacements. But here's why I think that this cannot be the case. Even if they do think it would be bad business, somebody else wouldn't. A big light bulb company would already have steady business, but an upstart wouldn't. They'd have trouble competing with the big boys. Manufacturing bulbs that don't go out would be a surefire way to level the playing field and rocket them to success, making the inventors very wealthy people indeed. Now, if the mythical immortal bulbs were originally invented by a big corporation, of course they'd guard the secret for exactly that reason. But they could not keep somebody else from independently discovering it. The only way to prevent somebody else from making them would be to file a patent, which would put the secret out in the open (so we would already know about it and probably even how to make them ourselves) and would expire in 20 or so years, when everybody would be free to make these bulbs. And the potential for independent discovery is big. The light bulb itself is commonly credited to Thomas Edison, but it would probably still have been invented without him. Perhaps it'd have been later, but he was not the only person working on the light bulb. It's more accurate to say that he perfected the light bulb than that he invented it. Likewise, Alexander Graham Bell wasn't the only guy who was working on the telephone, and so on. If there's a scientific principle that allows light bulbs to last forever, somebody's gonna find it sometime. And if that somebody is a big corporation who doesn't want the secret to get out, somebody else is going to find it anyway. The companies can destroy their special bulbs and their plans for them, but they can't destroy the underlying physics. By the way, there is a light bulb at a fire station in Livermore, California, that has never been turned off since it was first used in 1901 (although of course it's seen the occasional power outage). What about that one, then? Well, it's quite simple: the bulb is powered by only 4 watts. So it'll be lit for a very long time, but it won't be very bright. You can do the same thing with any bulb, really. - Kef |

I believe that the police, the mayors, and the President are all secretly part of the timeshare organization, which means you can never escape timeshare. I also believe that the illuminati is trying to keep the Carebears in control of America. |

And its thick... Negative. If you increased the cross sectional area of the wire, that would decrease the resistance of the wire, which would increase the current, which would draw too high of a current from the source which would then either blow a circuit, or start a fire. Also, light bulbs use tungsten, not copper. |

They do have those new fluorescent bulbs that use a quarter of the power and last for up to 7 years (although the GE brand of them sucks). |

 I wasn't trying to be cool or original. There just aren't any "good" conspiracy theories. Except for the one mentioned by StrongRad involving Roswell. That one actually makes sense.

Here's my favorite, especially living in San Francisco's infamous Tenderloin neighborhood: The War on Drugs is merely an attempt for militant late-capitalism to thrive on a permanent underclass. Fueled by a constant drug import partially supported by the CIA in order for it to fund black-ops and right-wing dictatorships, drugs are disseminated in the ghettos of America to promote its decay and destroy the prospects of class-mobility. Harsher jail terms for drug offenders keeps an orange-clad workforce to perform cheap labor for the defense industry. |
