conspiracies would be well funded by individual people who keep their hands clean and hire a small bunch of  professionals who enact them.

usually only 1 or 2 would actually concoct plan and coordinate logistics. operators would not know the full story and were even perhaps lied to to gain their help.

financers = powerful people who don't care to know the details, just pay for "something to happen"
planners = folks in powerful positions willing to go rogue on the side who have the expertise and connections to make something happen
operators = folks known and trusted by the planner(s) who agree to go rogue for side compensation

risk mitigation and all of that.

Like the nuke that was supposed to go off in SC that Lindsay Graham let out?  It was supposed to coincide with a solar pole shift that would have effectively ended life as we know it.  But for the 3 military generals who have since been disappeared, we would be starving now.

They set the nuke off 600 miles east in the atlantic.

With all the power it has accumulated, even if it was 95% buffoons and incompetent fools, the other 5% could do some seriously scary shit with all that power if they decided to coordinate for nefarious purposes.

I think on a whole the government is full of self serving liars who get fat on the cash cow.  They have no moral fiber and will screw the American public blind, steal from our children and rape our constitution.

When faced with the options that someone is either (A) Stupid, or (B) Evil; I tend to believe they're Stupid until it is proven pretty solidly that they're Evil.

Some people, however, test my belief in this system.

I find this is a good way to judge certain posters on ARFCOM.

It has to be a get both situation.  There are whackjobs that want nothing more than to see things run their utopian way, and they come up with their own versions of the five year plan.

Unfortunately for them, a lot of the people executing the five year plan are DMV/CIF folks.

"I'm sorry Warlord, but you have to fill out Form 8787X and have it approved by your chain of command to requisition the bombs to nuke them from orbit."
