Quoting Jessica [Slvrmoon]:“ I can think of way better places for 8% to go...”

  

I guess I'm a person..who fears what I see everyday..more so than the threat of something. I see poverty. I see it on the news..and the paper..and when I go out and about. I hate the thought of a child going hungry. And our rate of children being homeless in Kentucky went up 2 percent from 2 years ago. Thats scary. I know military is his strong point. But I fear losing my job, or not being able to care for my children more.

If the economy got so bad that I had to *GASP* give up my cell phone and cable TV and internet to feed and clothe my children, then that's what I would have to do. If it got so bad that I couldn't afford those things either, then the government has provided a safety net (welfare). So no, I don't particularly fear not being able to feed my children.

Right now, I don't go walking around thinking, "Today could be my last day to live because I might be a victim of a terrorist attack." But the possibility of another 9/11 happening does scare me. So I chose the terrorist attack.

agree....but if it were a biological warfare we would be screwed either way....

that's thepercentage the goverment tells us is being spent....I don't believe a word they are telling us..They are sugar coating us like a box of frosty flakes!

Quoting pierced dork .:28 days:.:“ i personally think that once bush is out of office, the threat of terrorism will diminish greatly... but... i will still be poor... so i go with the food and clothing my family...”

So you feel personally threatened by terrorism as a direct act of Bush?

Interesting since there have been no successful terrorist attacks since 2004 in the United States or against American interests abroad.

I believe it...

Quoting chicki-chicki:“ I believe it...”

You believe that we are at a higher risk for terrorist acts because of Bush? Can you please explain why since we haven't been attacked since 2004 and before that we had been attacked at least once a year since 1995?

I fear an act of terrorism, if I had to choose one. I think that humans should learn to live off the land again and quit counting so much on Federal help. No one is stopping anyone from raising their own veggies or sewing their own clothes. It's just the matter that doing these things are looked down upon or not the 'in' thing to do.

Go McCain.

No, I believe Bush was involved in the 9/11 attack...

lol, wha?! Who said that?

I fear failing my children the most.

Quoting Jessica [Slvrmoon]:“ lol, wha?! Who said that?”

I did...lol
it's something I believe..There is no "actual" proof (of course not, we are talking about the goverment here) but I do believe Bush set it up ( or was part of teh plan) to gain power/control over the people..It was a reason to start "martial law"...

We now live ina police state...
