I believe the assassination could have been small or it could have been much much larger than even you believe. I simply dont know. All i was trying to do was open up a area of debate as to the cost of it. I dont think ive ever seen that point discussed.
I also believe its possible that you come very close to the truth in your estimation of the cost. The only thing i really believe about the assassination is that tge lone nut theory is wrong but im willing to admit i could be incorrect about that too.
If you have 'no conceptualization of the assassination', I don't believe this is a forum for you to be posting questions - maybe [just maybe] reading and catching up!]. I'm sorry now I invested my time answering your question[s]. Who the fuck cares what it cost!? It cost us our Country, Our President, Our Polity, Our Democracy, Our Constitution....and more...if you don't get that...kindly post no more until you do! If this constructed to look like a 'naive' Sunsteinian query [I don't claim to know the answer], then it never deserved a nanosecond of my time. Read the book I suggested - then post any questions you may have. However, you 'naive' statement, IMO is l as likely as not a false flag.
To all: the deluge of new members has been problematic. One of the best new members quit [for all the wrong reasons] and some of the least valuable - and/or Sunsteinian agents remain here. This is not like other forum on JFK, IMO, it is an ongoing ADVANCED discussion forum that puts the JFK assassination, as important as it was, in context with other events and history - past and present.
The confluence of the end of the EF and the approach of the 50th is proving problematic. I feel slightly used with Steve's replies above.
Steve, were you from the EF, or what?! If you don't tell, I'll find out by my own means. This is not a game, here. Get real and get informed...or get going...is my suggestion. Those permanent denizens here are not long fooled as they are on other Forums on JFK or Deep Politics. You have met the pros, IMO. Tread carefully or disappear. If just naive and uninformed, no problem - if anything else, expect a ride rougher than those who sent you here expect.
I'm upset now I even touched this thread. I need to take a shower in special soap. Steve, I'd like/expect a FULL answer/explanation within 24 hours - or I'll have much more to say....
