I'm in the group of people believing Good is on the Earth too. That does not mean we don't understand men abuse power.
They call it 'cheap cynicism' for a good reason. So true it has a cliche all its own.

I also find it interesting that folks who congratulate themselves for being so savvy that they're not fooled like everyone else, fail to exercise even the slightest skepticism toward the half-baked conspiracy theories.
There's a guy I occasionally play poker with that's a 'true believer.' --- Just when I thought I heard it all, he's got something else that takes the cake.
The other evening he was bemoaning that we're 'torturing' all these people and not even for information.... We're not even asking them any questions because everyone knows 'terrorists' don't even exist ... the whole 9-11/terrorism thing was just made up by W to justify all this war stuff so oil prices would rise and W's brother, David, will get rich with his oil holdings. They're just grabbing Moslems at random and 'torturing' them for ????
Other notable doozies:
American Pharma is working with the UN to kill people (population control) with its drugs and therapies (rather than natural, holistic cures).
"War never solved anything in the history of the world." WWII was devised to justify American's desire to 'murder of millions of Japanese.'
The PGA is rigged.
Every telephone call/email is monitored by the feds and has been since the 1960s.
Last year's hurricanes were actually the testing of U.S. 'weather weapons' that everyone knows have existed since the 1950s.
FEMA flooded New Orleans, intentionally flooding the poorer neighborhoods to spare the richer ones.
..... it goes on and on and on.
