Realizing 2010 was about to be here, I remember how I believed “I would be old” when thinking of 2000 while in school. That led me to remember the Y2K [bogus] bug. Remembering the Y2K, I remembered the Ozone hole, which caused me to remember the “new” ice age…
Then I remembered how Japan was “going to own America”, much like we hear China “will own America” now.
Does anyone else see a common theme here? “Keep the citizens in fear”, seems to be the goal of the media, the government, or both.
Having some (a little) experience with trying to control “masses”, I can say installing fear and worries is a goal to “control”. Do you believe I am just “blowing smoke”?
Well let’s look back – post WWII
Hmm, that is just a few – Am I blowing smoke?

Well let’s look back – post WWII
- Fear of the ‘A’ bomb – Bomb shelters, “duck and cover”, etc.
- McCarthyism
- Cold War
- Temperatures cooling and entering a new ice age
- Oil Shortage
- Japan would “buy and destroy” America
- Going to “cook” due to a hole in the Ozone
- AIDS
- Animal Fat
- Domestic Terrorism
- Global Warming
- International Terrorism
- Trans fats
- China will “buy and destroy” America
Hmm, that is just a few – Am I blowing smoke?
