Don't underestimate the ability the promise of simple answers to life's problems has over people desperate for said answers. I know people who buy the Law of Attraction nonsense hook line and sinker. Of course, these people also believe in that personal sovereignty nonsense, and that every country in the world except Switzerland is run by the Rothschild family, who are also apparently multi-trillionaires...
I once got into an argument with someone about whether The Law of Attraction abided by the Law of Conservation of Mass; because if it did, than it didn't seem any different than stealing.
