I just figured out a sure-fire conspiracy that will enable us to take over the entire US of A, lock, stock, and barrel! It’s so simple I don’t see why I hadn’t thought of it before! Here’s the deal:
We buy up the entire military side of the Military-Industrial Complex. Then we sell off or tear down all other parts of the US Aggregate Productivity System (APS). We then have a population of lawyers, accountants, arms manufacturing workers, and drug addicts, who couldn’t build a bicycle if their lives depended on it.
What we have then is a US population of crypto-mafia stooges that can support itself only by threatening the APS-bearing nations with nuclear weapons. We could even privatize the military itself, so we’ll own that too! (A “protection” racket.) This would require a lot of “whiff of the grape” exercises to show the APS-bearing nations that we are actually insane enough to wreck the earth, but you have to break some eggs to make an omlett… The helpless and useless surplus US population then becomes a big barracks of nuclear hostages — OUR HOSTAGES! We Win!!!

Obama to Urge Elimination of World’s Nuclear Weapons
By JEFF ZELENY
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 — Senator Barack Obama will propose on Tuesday setting a goal of eliminating all nuclear weapons in the world, saying the United States should greatly reduce its stockpiles to lower the threat of nuclear terrorism, aides say.
Well… I’m holding out ’till he promises a private jet plane for every US family.
