I'd like to see more discussion about anxiety being fairly justified even in the modern world. Not necessarily useful, but also not unfounded.
The right wing lean surprises me. I guess it depends on where your anxiety is focused on. I'm much more anxious about systems, mobs, and the economy than terrorists.

The only things I can think of offhand are 1) instituting a UBI so people don't have so much financial stress and poverty is alleviated and 2) implanting a very efficient public transit system like SkyTran so that people can get around quickly and reliably.
