Frankly, I'm not a subscriber the the "conspiracy theory" per se. that said, I believe what drives most people is the desire to acquire power. As opposed to a conspiracy, I look at it as a confluence of interest. People who have power want to keep it and will work together to keep it so long as their interests don't conflict. Ultimately though, they will turn on each other.

Ultimately, what WE want is power. What we do with it is the difference between "us" and "them".

I must not understand conspiracy because I don't think there is any conspiracy to one world order. It is simply a group of select elite who are very wealthy and influential that have the common goal to be rich and powerful handing that ability down through their generations.

I don't really believe the "average" American wants power. He wants what the government convinced him was the American Dream (whatever fits in and funds the elitests folly). Joe Six-Pack is willing to work for someone else but wants a decent living for a decent days work to raise a decent family. Society is corrupt but it began with money and the power it brought. The power they wield is through the promises they make to the fodder. Those in power love nothing more than for the average to become property owners. Once you are a property owner they have a more stable tax-base because you will continue to work doing anything to protect your interest and thus you will continue to feed the government all the while keeping the bums in power. That is the only reason I see housing is so important to the government.

War is also to make money--for the powerful. Unrest among the average is a diversion for the wealthy to go about their business unnoticed and you can be sure it is not for the average guy's benefit.

I do not believe the elite are in Congress--they are not part of that group.
