Default Terrorism vs Corporations+Goverments: who's the real problem?

Do you think major problem on earth is terrorism or the fact that power is the hands of a small number of people?

EDIT: my opinion is that mentioned causes often coincide

I think it's the fact that nobody can agree on anything

But I think lack of respect comes from differences of opinions. It is your opinion that everyone should communicate and compromise with people who don't agree, but there are others who believe that it's "my way or the highway".

I know of at least two people on this forum alone that think that way, but I will not mention names.

Aww...you just want to put fear and doubt in the population (on these forums)?

I can think of at least one government that uses that strategy too!

Well, there are certainly those who are too immature to understand the art of compromise and communication. Most of it is simply due to age and inexperience. The others are usually arrested in their development of maturity. Another opportunity that opens up with these older ones is to reflect back to them their obstinance and personality tendencies. At least that plants seeds in them and I'm sure they hear and think about it..

More people die from car crashes than terrorism, in the U.S. Why's there no war on cars? Follow the money.
For just an instant, have a glimpse, a vision, of life through my eyes. It is a staggeringly joyous perspective, a view of how each person's choices can make their own life better. It is a vision of the possible, of how things can and should be.

Terrorism is just an excuse for government to do whatever they are doing.
I am not for unfounded conspiracy theories, but i am sure of the above. It might be that many government employees are convinced, but it is not the underlying source. The people has to stop taking this bullshit for reasons, and get some power over the politicians. As well as get corporations out of govt.
