What Are You Afraid Of?

Often not a tiny bit more than half of all Americans believe that gang violence and child abductions have increased over the past twenty years but in reality they have decreased over that time. Along with those fears many Americans fear things such as identity theft, walking alone at night and speaking in public. But a shocking result was that many were afraid natural disasters but few of those actually had emergency supplies or a kit ready. The research team plans on taking these survies of the people annually and that it would show people that America has improved drastically.
