When 36% of the citizens of the United States believe that it is likely that the US government was behind what happened on September 11, 2001, is it still considered a conspiracy theory?
If you find this hard to believe, I suggest taking a look at Loose Change, keeping an open mind. There are many more examples of this, but this is a good place to start.
It seems that some people that find it hard to believe that more than two-third of the citizens are this distrustful of their government. Why is that so hard to believe? I know a lot of people that have lost all hope in their own government. I realized how many I knew when I tried to get people (friends and family) to get out and vote, recently. Most of them were not going to vote, due to some sort of distrust of the government.
Compare that with any “actual” voter turnout, and then imagine how many citizens have the same excuse for not voting.
