With Sept 11 coming up...

[scaeagles]

I am struggling a bit here to put into words what I'm thinking.

I think the government should not run social security because the money is better in the private sector. Many would say that I am crazy to take it away from government control and give any portion to the private sector, yet believe that same government would launch such a conspiracy.

I think we should not move to government run health care (socialized medicine) because the private sector is more capable of management. Many would say that the private sector is too much about profit and the government should be entrusted with it, yet believe that same government would launch such a conspiracy.

I find the dichotomy of - and I am guilty of this as well - of what the government should and should not be trusted with as an interesting one. The very suggestion that Clinton would have lauched missiles into Iraq and Afghanistan on the same day as the Monica Lewinsky testimony to distract attention from the testimony is met with cries saying that it is a whacked out conspiracy theory. I do not subscribe to that, it just seems so small in comparison to this theory.
