UNIFIED CONSPIRACY THEORY:

In 1908, an alien spacecraft exploded at Tunguska, Russia;

The Roswell alien spacecraft was a rescue mission for the Tunguska crash, but it fell through a wormhole and crashed in the New Mexico desert 39 years later;

A piece of alien technology from the Roswell crash was discovered by a teenager named Elvis Presley;

Presley turned it over to the Nazi scientists of Operation Paperclip (Presley was placed in a government relocation program in Memphis, TN, where he promptly blew cover);

The Nazi scientists reverse-engineered the alien technology and developed the Internet, GMO's, fracking and chemtrail technology, which in turn sucks our precious bodily fluids from the atmosphere and provides power for the HAARP array;

The HAARP array destroyed the Twin Towers and the Pentagon on the order of George W. Bush, who personally detonated them from his secret Skull and Bones man-cave beneath the campus of UT-Austin.

There, it all makes sense, Mulder and Scully were right, The Truth Is Out There, man!

So this guy who wrote 'The Republican War on Science' as well as 'The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science', is "worried" about conspiracy theories flooding the mind? Perhaps Mooney should check his head first.

No doubt supply and demand is at work here (Especially the increase of supply in the Americas), but Middle-East economic warfare has turned into conspiracy theories. Is OPEC one giant conspiracy theory? Did the Saudis really love the American consumer in 1985?

gloBULLism sucks.

You don't have to believe in Rube Goldberg type conspiracy mechanisms to question whether the Saudis flooding the market with low priced oil may be intended to shut down more expensive North American oil production. If Wal Mart comes into a town and undersells the local hardware, grocery, and clothing stores, it is not a part of a scheme by the Illuminati, the Council on Foreign Relations, or the Masons, but Wal Mart's standard procedures.

Don't forget that President Obama is friendly to the Saudi royals. The Saudi Arabian regime is strictly opposed to the Iranians and consequently their Russian allies. Both Iran and Russia have ignored Obama. He may want revenge, so he and the Saudis have a mutual interest. Plus an added bonus: declining energy prices hurt the economies of the Oil Patch, an area very hostile to the administration.

A: Because people don’t understand Supply and Demand (Econ 101).

There are people who believe the earth is going to begin wobbling in it’s orbit due to the oil deep in the earth being pumped out. I’m sure many DU posters believe it.
