you summed that up perfectly. I was 17 when JFK was assassinated, and I really believe it was a defining moment in my life.

Personally, I think it's impossible to ignore the possibility, or probability even, of conspiracies at work. Too many of our leaders have died violent or mysterious deaths, and just look where we are today. All the fascist dreams are finally coming to fruition. I don't have much hope at this point.
