...theories (take Glenn Beck's followers? for instance) tend to do so because they are weak minded individuals who want to be able to externalize their own failures. Imagining some great unseen cabal allows them to blame their failures on someone else. Also, the greatest fear of all for mongers of conspiracy theories is that the world might really just be a bunch of people muddling around trying to figure things out as they go. Your typical conspiracy theorist wants to believe that someone is in control and the absolute absence of a single over-arching power is the greatest shock they can possibly imagine.
