the gov't has had prior documented evidence of operations of "mind control" to win wars or get an advantage for a particular reason or cause, now I don't mean they CONTROL your mind, but they alter the general public's feelings and sentiments towards a country or group of people to further their causes
I hate to think it because it is the "in" thing to believe, but it boils down to oil. The world, especially the USA is dependant on oil. No oil. No USA economy. It would make the great depression look like a ripple in the pond in comparison. We are using oil not only in the USA, but throughout the world at an alarming rate. Oil is not a repenishable resource. Well, it won't be replinished any time we are alive or even close to it.
Once oil is gone, it's gone. The USA and World economy would collapse on its self. No cars, no mass transit, food shortage, stock market crash, etc. It would be worse than a nuclear war in my opinion.
Oil will beginnign to become more scarce and scarce. Heck, even the largest oil field in Kuwait has "dried" up. People are having to look further, drill deeper, to find more oil.
The current world population now: 6,525,486,603
World population in 2030: 8,206,457,382
That is almost 2 billion more people. If you think oil is a problem now, wait for only about 25 more years when the population increases and more of the world becomes more "advanced" and dependant on oil. It will be definately be a challenging time for sure, and all of us will be there to see it. It's not that far away.
Am I saying that there was some 9/11 stuff having to do with oil. No. I honestly don't know, but most people underestimate the worth of oil. As of late we in America have been lucky, but as you can see with the current times that it probably won't be gettign any better.
