A motto on the reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States (with Novus ordo seclorum), from the Latin words annuo, "to nod/approve", and coeptum, "commencement, undertaking", translated as, "Providence favors our undertakings" or "Providence has favored our undertakings".

Antinomianism

(Ancient Greek: ἀντί, "against" and νόμος, "law") Any view which rejects laws or legalism and argues against moral, religious or social norms (Latin: mores), or is at least considered to do so. The term has both religious and secular meanings.

Apologia

An apologia (Latin for apology, from Greek: ἀπολογία, lit. 'speaking in defense') is a formal defense of an opinion, position or action,[...] often in the context of religion, theology and philosophy. In modern usage, apologia describes a formal defense and should not be confused with the sense of the word 'apology' as an expression of regret; however, apology may mean apologia, depending on the context of use.

Apophenia

The tendency to perceive meaningful connections between unrelated things. Coined in 1958 by psychiatrist Klaus Conrad as "unmotivated seeing of connections [accompanied by] a specific feeling of abnormal meaningfulness". He described the early stages of delusional thought as self-referential over-interpretations of actual sensory perceptions, as opposed to hallucinations. Apophenia has also come to describe a human propensity to unreasonably seek definite patterns in random information, such as can occur in gambling.
And/or corruption conspiracies and/or inability to recognize obvious corruption conspiracies?

  • Pareidolia
    The tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one detects an object, pattern, or meaning where there is none. Pareidolia is a type of apophenia. Common examples include perceived images of animals, faces, or objects in cloud formations; seeing faces in inanimate objects; or lunar pareidolia like the Man in the Moon or the Moon rabbit. The concept of pareidolia may extend to include hidden messages in recorded music played in reverse or at higher- or lower-than-normal speeds, and hearing voices (mainly indistinct) or music in random noise, such as that produced by air conditioners or by fans.

Rent-seeking

The act of growing one's existing wealth by manipulating the social or political environment without creating new wealth. Rent-seeking activities have negative effects on the rest of society. They result in reduced economic efficiency through misallocation of resources, stifled competition, reduced wealth creation, lost government revenue, heightened income inequality, risk of growing corruption and cronyism, decreased public trust in institutions, and potential national decline. Successful regulatory capture of regulatory agencies (if any) to gain a coercive monopoly can result in advantages for rent-seekers in a market while imposing disadvantages on their uncorrupt competitors. This is one of many possible forms of rent-seeking behavior.

In res ipsa loquitur, the existence of the first three elements is inferred from the existence of injury that does not ordinarily occur without negligence.
