Facebook Conspiracy Theory, Obama Jobs Stats

What if you had ab IPO and nobody came?

Funny that both of these items hit my inbox today. Both are conspiratorial in nature.

First, from “American Breaking Point” comes the notion that “somehow” the powers-that-be (the hidden elite) are behind the meteoric rise of Facebook. I quote:

 Why do we believe that Facebook is a kind of false flag? The biggest tip-off in our view is Facebook’s astonishing popularity. It’s simply another social networking site but it’s one that’s attracted nearly a billion users. Is it really so much better than other such facilities?

No Shariah in Kansas, Amateur Book

Interesting story from my inbox. Quoting from Newsmax…

Republican Kansas Governor Sam Brownback signed a bill aimed at keeping state courts and agencies from using Islamic or other non-U.S. laws when making decisions, his office said on Friday.

Opponents of state bans say they could nullify wills or legal contracts between Muslims.

I dare ya. No, actually I double dare ya. :evil:

I was quite fascinated yesterday to get this in my inbox

Floating city for startups makes waves among entrepreneurs

The world's EEZs are shown as a white extensio...

Wow. Basically, the company behind “Blueseed” (the name of the “floating city”) is trying to create an independent “state” where tech entrepreneurs can get together in international waters and pursue their  startups.

Makes you kinda wonder – is the state of business so bad in the U.S. that someone decided they need to be 12 miles off the coast to feel “safe” in their endeavors? Or, is this just a ploy by some less than honorable promoters who need to stay just out of the clutches of the authorities.
