The question then becomes why believe one and not the other? The same issues apply, putting something into our bodies that the Govt sez is ok and beneficial to our health.
Simple - I've looked into the evidence.
Doesn't sound like you have read the inserts that come in the boxes
but thats OK
Bill Gates says there are to many people on the planet and that vaccines will fix that
no conspiracy there

I take issue not with those who take logical, reasoned issue with an official story, but more with those who, for example, proclaim loudly over and over that everything, and I mean everything, is a false flag. It's like a knee-jerk reaction. At best, they're crying wolf. At worst, they're spitting in the faces of those who lost loved ones at Aurora, Sandy Hook, and Boston. All of these are supposed to lead to -fill in the blank-. It's like they're always waiting for the other shoe to drop but it never does.
No, no one's kicked your door down to take your guns, nobody's been put into a FEMA camp, martial law hasn't been implemented, and nobody's been slipping hypno-pills into our Pez dispensers. It makes them feel special, intelligent and "in the know", while trying to convince the stupid sheeple to come around to their way of thinking.
In addition, it feeds their sense of self- importance to imagine themselves in battle with titanic, often shadowy, "evil forces", when in actuality they're sitting on their butts typing at a computer screen, pretty much like I'm doing now. Then again, I don't have my ego invested in it.
I realize I may attract brickbats for this, but I don't particularly care. I don't try to run my life like some popularity contest, and never will. Now I have more important things to do, like take my grandson down to the ballfield
to shag some fly balls. Bye!

I find this post very odd indeed, like you have some hidden agenda or something, just like all the others that used to be 'truthers'.

Conspiracy theorists also believe that the United States and eventually the entire
world are either on their way to Hitlerian fascism or that they already are fascist. This is
downright delusional.
What really has turned me off from conspiracy theory more than anything is the
libertarian and anti-intellectual agenda theorists push. Conspiracy theorists are punks
who hate authority simply for being authority, no matter how well deserved that
authority may or may not be.
Conspiracy theories can be outright dangerous. The Holocaust was perpetrated largely because of conspiratorial beliefs about Jews wanting to take over the world. The anti-vaccine movement in the US has caused diseases like measles to make a comeback. If Jim Henson wasn't skeptical of modern medicine he probably wouldn't have died of pneumonia at a young age.

If you believe the government has never lied, covered anything up, or staged something, then you are obviously naive and illiterate to history.

None Dare Call It Conspiracy will be a very controversial book. At first it will receive little publicity and those whose plans are exposed in it will try to kill it by the silent treatment. For reasons that become obvious as you read this book, it will not be reviewed in all the "proper" places or be available on your local bookstand. However, there is nothing these people can do to stop a grass roots book distributing system. Eventually it will be necessary for the people and organizations named in this book to try to blunt its effect by attacking it or the author. They have a tremendous vested interest in keeping you from discovering what they are doing. And they have the big guns of the mass media at their disposal to fire the barrages at None Dare Call It Conspiracy.
By sheer volume, the "experts" will try to ridicule you out of investigating for yourself as to whether or not the information in this book is true They will ignore the fact that the author about to conjecture. They will find a typographical error or ague some point that is open to debate. If necessary they will lie in order to protect themselves by smearing this book. I believe those who pooh-pooh the information herein because Psychologically many people would prefer to believe we are because we all like to ignore bad news. We do so at our own peril.
Having been a college instructor, a State Senator and now a Congressman I have had experience with real professionals at putting up smokescreens to cover up their own actions by trying to destroy the accuser. I hope that you will read the book carefully, draw your own conclusions and not accept the opinions of those who of necessity must attempt to discredit the book. Your future may depend upon it. October 25, 1971 JOHN G. SCMITZ UNITED STATES CONGRESSMAN
Millions of Americans are concerned and frustrated over mishappenings in our nation. They feel that something is wrong, drastically wrong, but because of the picture painters they can't quite put their fingers on it
FDR once said "In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way."
