What I love about the people who put forth these 9/11 conspiracy theories citing the fact that they believe that the US government is pure evil and corrupt enough to carryout such an attack... is that many of these same people believe that government in general is the answer to society's problems and should be in charge of nearly ever aspect of our lives, including...
-our health care
-our education
-providing all of our housing / food needs and other "safety net" programs
-our economy, job security and retirement funds
-controlling speech and what is deemed "acceptable" behavior
In fact, the vast majority of people who believe in 9/11 conspiracies are people from outside the US, mainly Europe, the Middle East, and Asia... you know, areas where the average government is either already heavily involved in most social aspects of their lives (i.e. a left-wing / socialist gov't), or is pretty much in complete control of everything (i.e. absolute monarchies, dictatorships).
Yup... we're supposed to rely on those very same eeeevil governments to provide all of our needs for us and tell us how to live our lives because we can't do so ourselves... but we'll be damned if we believe their "official stories" when it comes to matters of international threats and conflicts... we're not falling for that bullshit!.
Now, can I please have my welfare/uneployment check, Uncle Sam, so I can blow it on booze, a big screen TV, and a DVD box set of Jersey Shore?

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
