"I suspect that they have directions they want the world to go that citizens in the countries of the world may not want."

So do I. So does just about everyone I know. In just about every country I've ever traveled to. That happens to be a very common world-wide desire.

"I don't find the notion of wealthy or powerful men working on plans to direct future history for their own purposes."

I think you forgot to complete your thought here, so I'm going to refrain from responding until I have a better idea of what you are saying.

" I think it's tin foil hat time when it's assumed that a such a group, composed of those who can personally direct industry blocs with upper managerial power, meets regularly, the minutes are secret and the security is total."

People who believe that are people who rely on the writings of conspiracy theorists rather than reality to form their opinions. Among the thousands of the members of the CFR are active military officers (and not general and admirals) who have taken oaths to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. These are not world power players. They are dedicated and fiercely loyal Americans. Yet some would like to believe they engage in "secret" meetings plotting to form a single New World Order. That isn't just tinfoil time. It is rubber room time.

Yet this very common state of mind and motivation can't be assigned to those who have the power and means to actually do something about it?

Yes, I left out a descriptor. And you can't get it from the context. What, you think I meant to say I don't find the notion credible?

who have taken oaths to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

And that oath has not regularly been broken by the president, the high court and the majority of congress, not to mention most lower functionaries? So, being a member of CFR rates a presumption that these will uphold the oath?

You're saying that all of CFR are made up of those whom you think powerless?
