The 5 Stupidest Government Ideas of All Time
by James Corbett, The International Forecaster:
Those who have followed my work over the years will know that I believe parody and satire to be two of the most important tools for snapping people out of their mainstream conditioning whereby the most ridiculous ideas are normalized and internalized. Making fun of government stupidity and ridiculous “official stories” is also quite effective for knocking politicians, military leaders and other people in positions of power down a peg or two.
These are not Serious People (capital letters and all) whose ideas need to be carefully considered; they are buffoons who cling to power by virtue of their brutality and the fear and ignorance of the public. In other words, they deserve to be relentlessly mocked and exposed for the clueless bumbling idiots that they so often are.
Apparently, given the reaction to my 9/11: A Conspiracy Theory video, there are millions of people out there who agree with me on this. Recently I released my “Laughing At Tyrants” DVD compiling my best satire and parody videos in the hopes that it will be a good tool for reaching out to others who might not be able to look at a detailed, serious documentary, but whose curiosity can be sparked by humor and satire.
In that same vein, I present to you five of the stupidest projects ever schemed up by government. Let us never forget that for every successful plot or scheme from the powers-that-shouldn’t-be there are a thousand projects that were just plain idiotic.
