The Price of Panic

By Dan Hagen
The U.S. has vastly and hysterically overreacted to the threat of terrorism, and as a result has nearly wrecked the Constitution and the economy with endless, pointless, trillion-dollar invasions, occupations, kidnappings and legalized torture. 
Americans need to stop stampeding in panic, man up to the realities of the 21st century and indulge in some critical thinking.
The people who went through the American revolution, the Civil War and World War II knew they weren't traipsing through any bed of roses either, but they somehow managed not to soil themselves in abject fear.
