That's the grand irony to me. People construct all these bizarre theories to justify narratives to themselves when the real "government plot" is always in plain view and it's so painfully obvious : direct the money to where it is convenient to go.
I call it a conspiracy of boredom. If the average person knew all the details of how our monetary system worked, they'd be in the streets throwing molotov cocktails. The problem is that the details are just too boring and complicated for a vast majority of people to be interested in so nobody cares.
The Matt Taibbi articles of the 2008 era attempted to get people interested but covering it in sex drugs and rock n roll and putting it in rolling stone wasn't enough to get anybody interested.
