Gane quien gane...

... ganará el miedo en las elecciones americanas del próximo 2 de Noviembre (día de muertos!).

De una análisis de la BBC:

"It is the first time in decades that economy has not topped the list of concerns - security came first with 41%, while 26% cited the economy. That order of priorities seems likely to help President Bush in November. Americans generally consider him a safer pair of hands on security, while they prefer Senator John Kerry's domestic proposals, polls suggest.
But some Americans say the Bush administration has gone overboard with legislation such as the Patriot Act, which gives the government sweeping powers to monitor citizens' communications and activities. Bookstores and libraries have complained about provisions that enable the government to demand information on people's reading habits.
Unemployed worker Sherman Drake of Detroit calls the war on terror "an excuse to take our freedoms. "I go along with homeland security, but you cannot destroy freedom because of homeland security." He wants the candidates to focus on improving the economy and getting the unemployed back to work. "Would you rather be blown up or starve?" he asks."

La clase media americana apenas puede sobrevivir con los dos padres trabajando - aparte del tener las tarjetas de crédito al límite. Ahora deben preocuparse por antrax, aviones suicidas y bombas nucleares... Es una pena que el pueblo americano, que es muy diferente de su gobierno, tenga que vivir con estas opciones: o miedo o miedo. Y junto con ellos, todos. La pregunta ahora es: ¿cómo vencer al miedo?
