Anxiety

David Brook’s article talks about anxiety on how America has been affected, by this crazy election. It also says that anxiety has been destructive character on the national stage, because we all have heard what Donald Trump has said to the American people. Some of us are scared what he says, because who wants to build a wall on the south border if there is already one. He is just putting us in more debt and also some of businesses had failed. We were already went through the Great Recession, we do not need to back and start all over. Also Hillary Clinton has some bad things on her and that also worries America, she deleted thousands of secret emails that have America’s secrets in it. That worries us because it gives us stress about what country will receive these classified emails.

            The rich countries are more anxious than the poor countries. For example, Luxembourg is one of the richest countries in the world and all they want is money, and sometimes they have “anxiety” that they do not have enough for themselves. On the other hand, there is Nigeria a poor country that people live in shacks. The reason they have less anxiety is that they grateful what they have and they are happy with it. As I gave this example David Brooks mentions it too on percentages and by say this “anxiety” is a powerful thing in our lives. It can either break you or make you, depending what is your situation.

             The next thing is that David Brooks’ mentions in his article that the less educated are to have more anxiety than the well-educated because they think the election is rigged. In my opinion I do not think the election is rigged, it is just what Donald Trump said that gave people worries about their vote. To me I am still going vote, but the thing is my vote does not count because the electoral college is the only one that matters to win this presidential election. Also, why do people worry about this election it is the worse, because I talked to my grandfather about the election and he said do not worry about it. “It is not worse than the Jimmy Carter administration where everything had collapsed”. He said he had too much worries about getting a pay check and also the interest rate was bad back then. To me we should not have anxiety on this election because what can be worse than Jimmy Carter. “Hakuna Matata” (No Worries)
