A nice new conspiracy theory to worry about

Bilderberg is a shadowy annual conference, comprising of about 130 guests who are from the worlds of finance, politics and big business. The very rare times their members have spoken publicly about the content of their meetings, they have refuted being an elite class orchestrating the fate of the planet and its people, just people with very large influence on the world meeting with other people with large influence over the world. The fact that they are so secretive, they dont allow the press to attend, they dont publish statements or attendee lists and that they have extreme security surrounding their annual meeting has lead to the inevitable conspiracy theories. I cant say whether they are evil, innocent, or just a jolly little social club that most of us will not be invited to join. But there are those who accuse them of having the power to install their chosen representatives in positions of power around the world, and indeed of having done so.

Make up your own mind. Further reading below.
