For most Americans - there’s no threat to their daily survival - for millions food and water are available on a whim. Our basic needs are met, but as a  society, we have become so bored at times because our basic needs are met with ease –  there are no real-life concerns - there are no deadly animals around every corner - we have too much time to ruminate on things that don't really matter and this is causing unnecessary stress and anxiety and even anger.
