The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

This is the well remembered quote from a speech made by President Franklin Roosevelt when he took office in 1933. These words reminding us that in a time of crisis the worst thing we can do is to imitate Cpl Jones of Dad's Army, and rush about in a panic, shouting, Don't Panic! But very few of us stop and consider that this sort of panic is wrong. The self preservation gene kicks in and the gadarene swine gains another eager member.Once the charge has begun it is very difficult to maintain order and get Jack back in the box. This disease can only be cured from within, as my old Granny used to say it's a boot strap job, it's like trying to stop smoking or giving up the booze, it's up to you. But you have to do the job yourself. If you want to make the world a better place, start with yourself. The alternative of doing nothing is too serious to contemplate.
