3. Pretty simple really.

Every current and past government across the globe has known that in their population there is a large proportion of not very bright people, who aren't happy with the rewards life presents them, who blame the government for things it has no control over, and would prefer to burn it all down so they can rake over the ashes looking for things of value, while muttering . . . look at what you made me do!

Those governments make every possible effort to contain and control those Deplorables.
Minimise the potential harm they can do.

America just hasn't done a good job of that containment.

That containment, that damage limitation needs to start NOW!

5. Quite simple. Needful Things (no spoiler) by Stephen King.

Un-Spoiler to ptove my point.

A mysterious stranger enters town and caters to townspeoples' greed and spite, raising hell there.

Max Von Sydow in the movie version "miraculously" has a Mickey Mantle rookie baseball card.





OK you know the person to whom I am alluding, and so does Stephen.

And to my knowledge, only Daniel Webster beat him at his own game, but in another novel. ( by Stephen Vincent Benét )
