Here's my conspiracy theory, and I believe, how #OWS will help ruin this theory.
Since the last few financial collapses in US history have been man-made, in so much that corporations are run by men, that this last one was and continues to be created by the Oh-One percent-ers, the .01% of those people who control like 50% of America's wealth.
Destroy the economy by cutting jobs and shipping them overseas. Slash their own tax rates so our social system falters. Shutter even the infrastructure repairs, so that finally such a pent-up demand for jobs, that supply drives wages and salaries downward.
Then, after waiting out ONE presidential election, come back to swoop in like saviors when their man is put into office.
My conspiracy theory was that once any R was elected then all those mega-millionaires would start hiring once again, at lowered wages. All the rich conspired against America and wanted to wait.
But, #OWS began, and hopefully America will open their eyes, and the companies will start hiring soon.
