^That's the Old World Order for ya.
Soon to be, anyhow. The Illuminati that conspiracy theories touch upon does not exist. The Illuminati I am referring to is the implied global cartel between nations and companies (also known as the Bilderberg group) who work together to make as much money as possible by exploiting natural and artificial resources. The "New World Order" i.e the utopia for the privileged that conspiracy theorists so often cite, is not even a real goal - their only motivation is squeezing wealth out of the world to maintain their absurd standards of living.
Think of it as a bunch of kids sitting in a sandbox. One kid creates a decent-sized sandcastle and is pretty proud of it. The second kid, jealous as expected, one-ups him and builds an even bigger one. Then, more and more kids join them and build even taller castles - always looking to be the big dog of the sandbox. More and more sand is required, and the sandbox is starting to run empty. And at some point, those sandcastles are going to become dangerously unstable and crumble - and that's exactly what this "Illumnati" is doing.
We're not looking at a closely-knit group of savvy magnificent bastards who's equally savvy ancestors planned this 2000 years ago, but a bunch of economically gifted entrepeneurs whose greed led them to exploit the world without being able to see or care for consequences beyond the reach of their hands, and whose only guarantee of loyalty to one another is the ability to profit from cooperation.
I think the Occupy movement is perfectly justified since the world is suffering from it (edit:
"It" being, of course, the wealth inequality and not the movement... derp).
/rant that doesn't actually belong in this thread
Making up for it with some Shepbear and Garrbear.
