Fear mongering in a small market

Why are we constantly reminded that we should be afraid?

From the government, to the local newpaper, it seems that everyone is generating the need to fear more.

Reminding people that an idea will never work, that the market is in failure, that all hope is lost--does that work very often?

Fear mongering is a lousy profession, one that ought to be regulated, if not banned.
I'm more in favor of hope mongering.
2010 is the year that the world will change.
In fact, every year is that year, but this is the only time we'll get to change the world this time.

Aren't you ready for some "Hope Mongering"?
