    What I found most interesting is that the number one thing most people feared was government.
    Then looking through all the other items, in many cases (maybe a majority-didn't count) the "fear" or the alleged "danger" has been amplified or created by government acts.
    Although the alleged danger is either government itself, or was created by government action, many people expect government to protect them from the dangers that government created and those people are handing over the power to do so as fast as they can. It's a stampede of irrationality.
