Rush:

--- Quote from: Anthony on September 07, 2023, 04:37:56 AM ---As a nation and probably world, we have become so risk adversed and total safety obsessed.  And you're right, Rush, it is due to the rise of the power of WOMEN in our society that has made it this way.  It is to the detriment of society, progress in general, and death of the adventurous spirt, etc.

--- End quote ---

Women in positions of power over men such as in insurance company management and FAA bureaucrats.

But also the human tendency to overblow the significance of rare disasters and dismiss the significance of common ones such as car crashes.  Another example is the very rare “mass shooter” vs the very common inner city gang shooting which are hundreds of times more deadly. Although in that case they get around it by redefining “mass shooting” so as to include gang warfare thereby falsely jacking up the numbers. This makes the public falsely believe all these shootings are done with “assault rifles” when in reality they’re all (the gang ones) done with handguns.
