Look at gun sales after a shooting. The people buying are claiming they're buying them for protection. That's fear motivated buying.

Americans are scared to go to Europe after a terrorist attack. America is less safe than the EU.

The Patriot Act only got through because of fear.

Many Americans fear the government they elect.

Bush sold the war in Iraq, on fear.

A lot of Americans are scared of getting sick because of the cost. Same with unemployment and retirement.

Want more examples?
