by Wade Meredith on September 18th, 2006

Wired news has just published a story called “One Million Ways to Die” that contains a handy little chart to help us understand the reality of the terrorist threat our gov’t is spending hundreds of billions of dollars (that they don’t have) on.

    I bet the percentage is even lower for those of us in the midwest!

    LOVE THE RISK ANALYSIS But . . .

    You forgot SPINACH ! Last week one hundred people got sick, and one died, of SPINACH. So (the media) shut down the whole United States of Spinach ! However, in that same weeks, 800 died in cars, 300 of them from drunk driving ! Did anyone shut down ALCOHOL or recall CARS ?? Drunk driving is 300 X more dangerous than spinach !! HA !! (Note: Actually there are about 60 E. coli deaths per yr in U.S., anyway. One per week. Wash your Hands !)
