Yeah, maybe, who knows?
I'm more of the opinion that the fatal flaw of all conspiracies is that they are executed by humans.
To me the more likely situation is people individually are pretty smart and will work toward similar goals without necessarily cooperating, consulting or conspiring. For example it was good for many facets of capital to invade and supply and fight the war in Iraq. They didn't need to get together on some remote island to plot their course, they acted individually and the "conspiracy" self-organized.
The legitimate object of government, is to do for a community of people, whatever they need to have done, but can not do, at all, or can not, so well do, for themselves -- in their separate, and individual capacities.
-- Abraham Lincoln, Fragment on Government (July 1, 1854)
