Let me try a crack at your questions -
1. Violent crime - technically I live in an area of this, but I don't fuck w/them, and they don't fuck w/me.
2. Oil - that will be the Bush and Halliburton save-all in the next election. The oil companies say they need to raise rates, but they were the biggest companies to post corporate gains last year (co-funded by Bush and Halliburton). Election time, $3/gal will be seen as old news.
3. Global Warming - too far off for most people to care.
4. Terrorism - that's what I think of everytime GW tries to justify his spying on America. Have you noticed that when they say the U.S. stopped a terrorist attact, there are no pictures or facts to back them up?
5. Virus X - put more fear in Americans so they back GW.
6. Plane crashes - it happens. Fortunately in SoFL, they caught the drunk pilots BEFORE they got on the plane.
7. According to GW and his own, the 401K is supposed to be the answer to Social Security. Can't rely on SS., so you should rely on the 401K. We all remember Michael Silken - oh wait, he's still on trial.
8. Market collapse - not possible. How can it be when GW and his crew tell us that this is how we will get past SS? They guarantee the market will stay stable.
9. The dollar won't collapse - just ask GW.
10. The only reason an asteroid will hit Earth is if we do not follow GW's global plan (assisted by Jerry Fallwell, et al. - and we've seen how pure they are).
11. GW and Cheney are just waiting for the next nuclear war to unleash a whole new battalion or regime of troops to make money for Bush/Cheney. And if that doesn't work, maybe it will strike fear in Americans, so they don't focus on what is happening.
12. Obiesty? The parents don't care about themselves-you really think they care about the kids? Have you honestly viewed kids in America today? Parents could give less than a gnats ass.
13. Natural Disaster - Huricane. In SoFL, the majority are insured by the state run agency. Their rates for next year are greater than the mortagages. Don't even think about buying a house here unless you can spend 3k+ a month for a basic 2br/1bath.
14. Kidnappings, we seem to be on top of. 5 kids disappeared from here, and were found in TX in less than 24 hours. Guess that gives one reason to live in SoFL.
As far as other things to be scared of - kiss my arse. I served w/the USMC and USA. Punks on the street don't bother me.
