Excuse me but I truly don't get the "who made the nail" part. You mean who's above the governments etc?

Thanks for clarifying.
First of all,it certainly isn't the governments(I wasn't talking only about the US government). Greedy and lying middlemen. That's what they are in my opinion,nothing more.
I think I understand where you're coming from and if I'm correct then we disagree(I also disagree with the analogy).
I'll try to be as clear as I can be. My answer will be for this twisted structure and the results it gives: Someone really evil,someone really twisted and finally,someone with a huge hatred for humankind. I can't explain it otherwise. Maybe it can be up for a debate but I'll definitely wont do it in ATS. I've tried several times but there's lot's of dishonesty,especially on subjects like this.

It could be just me. It just seemed to me that you were talking from a gnostic point of view which supports the idea of "two sides,same coin" and that's something I disagree with.
Regardless if there was a misunderstanding or not,I didn't really mean anything on a personal level. I'm sorry if it seemed like that.

In my defense,I did leave open the possibility that I could be wrong. Plenty of people being sneaky on these subjects. If you haven't noticed it yet,you will.
Btw,it's definitely my fault too since I haven't got much sleep and here I am posting in english. It starts becoming a challenge.
We pretty much agree. Personally I do call people responsible but only at some level. To make it short and simple: If a person hits a pedestrian with his car by accident,he wont be treated the same with one who did it on purpose. Same with what I said in my first post about the trickster and the tricked.
We are speaking of 'want' in its very self. Want this, want that,... never any fulfillment or peace because the emotion of 'want' is what is being chased the entire time. Want for the sake of want, this is what the OP is talking about.

"They have great influence over the people. They wont simply let them to think,decide and act as they wish. They don't make their case clear either,they work through trickery so the people most of the time don't actually "choose" a way,they fall for it."

This thread can't be serious.
TPTB have corrupted just about every facet of humanity by negatively influencing the entire population with lies, deception, and propaganda but it's the common citizens fault after they enlist their trust to these powers because they choose (and are forced) to follow those who ARE SUPPOSED, (BUT FAIL) to uphold qualities such as liberty, freedom, equality etc.?
