8. My Fear

My fear is the people are ill equipped to understand their situation. I find it impossible to fathom or understand most people's method of logic. Politically they cannot understand some of the most basic common sense ideas. If a politician tells a senior citizen that he intends to end Social Security or Medicare and the senior decides to vote for him because he does not like a multiracial president, it is an act of fatal stupidity. That feeling supersedes everything else for that senior.

And there is case after case where "common sense" and "reality" totally out of the picture.
