I came across this awesome graph. It really shows how powerful fear is. 
St Pete For Peace.org is where I found it.
I bet the amount of money spent on mitigating suffering caused by these threats is almost exactly the opposite of this graph. Turn the graph around and we’ll see how much media attention and cash goes toward each issue.

Wow…Joanne, this really says a lot, doesn’t it?? And, the good ol’ US of A is one of the leaders perpetuating these myths. I see it in so many cultures and its so engrained that I find it miraculous we come out from under the lies.
This site is invaluable for those of us who are “coming out from under” the lies.
You “hold hands” and disseminate ‘baby steps.” BRAVO to YOU!!
Abrasitos! [Hugs]
