That's basic risk analysis
- emodendroket 11y agoI mean, it's "clear and obvious" to me, but since it's a major issue every campaign season and the risks presented by our old and crumbling infrastructure, global warming, and other menaces that don't make gruesome cell phone videos is not most people don't seem to have noticed.
- wiz21 11y ago100% agree... My old age tells me that politics are a necessary evil...
- summerdown2 11y agoExcept that the comparison isn't: 320,000 people dead due to traffic fatalities over 10 years. vs 350 people dead in terrorism over 10 years It's: 320,000 people dead due to traffic fatalities over 10 years causing little political fallout. vs 350 people dead in terrorism over 10 years plus a lot of political fallout for each event. Bluntly, to shift the risk argument we'd either need to take politicans out of the decision making and give it to some independent fact-based body, or get the media and people in general far more riled up about car crashes.
- emodendroket 11y agoIt seems to me that you are simply reiterating the original argument.
