The stupidity of those in power who do not understand science and cannot figure out how to profit from solving true world problems like hunger, disease, etc, but instead profit from Oil.

Indeed, incredible stupidity, when you put it like that: that we could solve world problems but are instead busy making rich people richer. What a waste! What a crime!

which they polled readers about their greatest travel fears and compared them 
to the statistical risks. A third of those responding said they worried about 
terrorist attacks, yet the historical odds that an American will die this way 
are 1 in 9.3 million. You're slightly more likely to die in an avalanche, more 
than twice as likely to perish in a bus accident, 40 times as likely to drown.
