Feeling Insecure? Calm Down

Over at Reason magazine, Steve Chapman takes a calming view of the supposed things threatening us. He points out we faced bigger threats in the past:

" Americans have come through more perilous straits than any visible now. But our past seems to have conditioned him and many of his fellow citizens to detect grave danger where it doesn't exist."

Clinton has a much longer history of militarism than Trump.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_Clock keep your eyes on doomsday clock , we are on second closest point of blowing up the world since the clock started back in late 40s
be aware , be very aware
dig a hole , crawl in and kiss your a** goodbye

Politics is the act of creating a fear by creating a crisis then offering a solution, then creating fear over which solution is worse.
We can easily stop playing the game, just by reading the constitution & demanding that all officials adhere to it.
That's too easy.
