> I think you rebut this one yourself - terrorism has a natural limit in the ability of terrorists to launch attacks. Not a hard limit, a statistical limit, but important none the less. The limit is not “natural”. The limit is at least partially because we are excessively vigilant about terrorism, and put measures, effective and ineffective, in place to anticipate and prevent terrorism. The far reaching and extensive nature of those measures is a result of the same risk calculus that I describe here, and is a manifestation of the same phenomenon that the research linked here found.
