Yep. The challenge with a conspiracy theory is they are impossible to disprove. You can't prove a negative, only a positive. Any attempts to discredit a conspiracy, only reveal the depth of how entrenched the consiracy reaalllly is. All while everyone forgets to put the burden-of-proof on the one propposing the conspiracy theory.
As to primers vs toilet paper; obviously we've all been through this. But the reality is it's a bad risk-investment to build a primer plant during a shortage. That's a heavily regulated hazard / dangerous good explosive product, that is subject to severe market fluctuations. The market flucuates, and that's a great way to have a 10-digit (or bigger) investment facility come on line, and immediatly be idled. Sure, run the crews 24/7 and invest in a little bit of debottlenecking now; but beyond that... I'd take a dim view if I was on the Board of Directors.
