From the book "Are We Scaring Ourselves To Death?" by H. Aaron Coh. 1997.

From the book "Are We Scaring Ourselves To Death?" by H. Aaron Cohl 1997:

"The good news is that our health has never been better in the history of mankind!"

"The next time you encounter a scare story, try to determine "who wins." Is it the gun lobby (playing up fears of crime)? Environmentalists? Health food entrepreneurs?"

""We can stop being pawns of special interest groups, lawyers, or politicians."

""Sense and medical research demonstrate that a particular "risk" is virtually no risk at all."

""All solutions carry risks - everything in life carries risks. ut in this case benefits far outweigh the potential harm."

Yes! This is the best of all possible worlds! Rejoice!

Now we can all stop worrying about our health, environment and even our economy.

Boy, isnt capitalism the panacea we have been searching for for thousands of years?
Yippie!

p.s. (Stop worrying and learn to love The Bomb)
