What do you worry most about in your personal life; terrorist attacks or?

[hedgehog]

I realized this morning that what has been worrying me the most are my two kids out of work, my personal health and where I'm going to plant tulips so the deer don't eat them. I forgot all about the threat of terrorists.

1. I consider the level of a threat from terrorists somewhat below that of a lightning strike.

5. +1. n/t

2. Sadly, (our) government won't help with the jobs or the health

But they'll take your freedom to keep you safe from the "terra"

3. My wife's health.

She had a very bad Sarcoma in her knee 2 years ago which required a complete knee replacement and chemo. Her chances were rated at 50/50 to live. We go back in for a followup in October.

Terrorists rate below the fear of Crocodile attacks here in the foothills of the Cascades.

4. Having enough money for my old age and health insurance

Worrying about my husband retiring - he plans to retire this fall on the idea we can get health insurance under the ACA. If the Supreme Court says that the subsidies don't apply to states that didn't set up their own exchanges, we're screwed. Gov. Prick Scott and the Republican controlled legislature will never approve ACA exchanges or Medicaid expansion.

At least under the ACA we can get insurance - before we could not because of pre-existing conditions - affording it will be another thing if we can't get subsidies.

6. No terrorist attacks at all - not from outsiders

Domestic Terrorists (KKK types scare the shit out of me) but they still rank much lower than the health and well being of my 13 nieces and nephews. And how I have to start Christmas shopping for them next month.

7. I have 7 adult kids/stepkids. I worry about how they will make a way for themselves

in this country/world. I have 11 grandkids/step-grandkids and I worry about what resource depletion and climate change inaction will mean to their lives and whether or not they also will be able to care for themselves properly.

I'm not worried about terrorist attacks.

8. So, you worry about yourself and your family the most

That's fine.

Not sure where you are but my family (I used to) work in and near terrorist targets everyday.

So it can be both as well. It can be both or anyone in the military or family in the military.

It's not wrong to worry about terrorism.

9. undetected health problems killing me while my family still needs me to take care of them

still waiting for the Tea Governor to cave on Medicaid or better yet, lose the election (both other candidates have promised to come through on ACA-related Medicaid as soon as they get sworn in)

10. Mortgage and Medical Care

More specifically the ability to pay for them. If everything goes to plan they are covered. Plan B is looking a little sickly still.

11. I spend about as much time worrying about terrorists

as I spend worrying about being carried away by Bigfoot or Martians.

I lost my home on May 1 and am living in a decent shelter.

Seriously, ordinary people who worry about terrorists are the same ones who think that the paranoids are united in a conspiracy against them.

12. being unemployed.

I have less chance of being hurt or killed in a terrorist attack than I do of getting hit by lightning. Unless, of course, I get a job at an abortion clinic, in which case my risk will go up quite a bit.

13. Anyone who drives a car/truck/SUV/Wagon/etc...

It is a daily struggle to not be killed by one of them. I've got to ditch the invisible motorcycle.

[spin]

14. I personally don't worry about being injured or killed in a terrorist attack. ...

However I remember 9/11 and the Boston Marathon bombing well. I don't wish to see another such attack in our nation.

I believe that it's not a matter of if but when our nation will see another serious terrorist attack. Of course I realize that I can't stop such an attack so losing sleep over the possibility is foolish. Therefore like you, I tend to worry most about the things I do have control over.

15. Health problems

because most of the doctors who've treated me and my close family members don't have the slightest clue as to how to treat illnesses and don't care. I'm continually amazed about the fact that most doctors I run into are incompetent.

[avebury]

16. Terroist attacks does not even rate the radar of my

list of concerns. I am more concerned about the militarization of police departments and the obsession with the Tea Party and Republican Party to destroy this country. The destruction of this country makes it impossible to fix any of our problems.

[closeupready]

17. Like many, I worry (unreasonably) about money and health.

I say 'unreasonably' because in comparison with people in most of the world, just about any American has it better than a randomly chosen person anywhere else in the world.

Other than those two areas, I don't worry much. It's not a productive expenditure of energy.
