The study does not claim to be conclusive, but I found it an interesting read.

Where do you find these ridiculous websites? You believe this manure because it is absurd! Here is the true theory of liberalism! One of the most important things to remember about socialism – or coercion of any kind – is it fails eventually because human beings have an innate desire for liberty and a strong need for personal property rights. In fact, the origins of government lie in the need of agricultural communities to protect themselves from violence and theft. So it is particularly ironic that in more recent times, it is government itself that has more frequently played the role of a bandit. I found it to be a stupid European article especially when they have no fiscal responsibility at all, and are financially and morally bankrupt!

The words "conspiracy theory" was invented by the CIA after the Kennedy assassination. When Poppy Bush worked there. Before he became the head honcho of the CIA. The CIA and the left have continued to use it to keep people quite by questioning their logic. Funny the government says UFOs exist now. Who would have ever believed it? That means conspiracy theorists were correct! If you enjoy things that go bump at night, you should read up on the Skinwalker Ranch. Many scientists and government agencies have investigated it. It seems to be a portal to another dimension. Things just appear and disappear. Just like UFOs do.

You are incorrect on the origin of the phrase "conspiracy theory".
