A story that is not inherently politically red or blue, but surely a USA concern.

This has been politicized to some extent -- for example see this post from Senator Rubio's website from back in May:

He is blaming Biden's border policies for allowing ISIS members into the country.
I don’t know how old you are, but there were many carefree and dismissive attitudes on 9-10-01, a day before the 911
terror attack on our Country.

There are also claims that we could be on the verge of another pandemic which would be much more deadly than COVID:

This does not seem very likely, of course, but it could be another example of the dismissive attitudes you have cited.

Also, of course, besides an even-worse repeat of September 11th or the COVID pandemic, hypothetically there could be a repeat of the 2008 crisis, although the details might be very different. We can see for example, that housing prices are high, some sectors of the stock markets may arguably be in bubble territory, and there are some issues in the banking system already as well. There could certainly be other concerns as well, for example the high levels of government spending and debt, or the possibility of resurgent inflation in the coming years.
Certainly though, it might be a mistake to always expect a new crisis to be a repeat of something that has already happened in recent memory. It could be that people have a "carefree and dismissive attitude" in regards to other, more novel, problems.

This looks like it was written by an AI. I see more and more posts or emails where some just ask ChatGP to write something.
11:28 -- It was actually not written by an AI, in fact if you ask an AI for feedback it will suggest a watered down and dumbed down version. Naturally, it claims the original version might "alienate" readers of course, since it would be telling them something they might not want to hear, I assume.
Strengths:
Clear Thesis: The central idea is well-articulated: while familiar crises like 2008 are possible, we should also be wary of unforeseen threats.
Specific Examples: The mention of housing prices, stock market bubbles, and banking issues grounds the discussion in current events.
Acknowledges Complexity: It recognizes that the next crisis might not mirror past ones, showcasing a nuanced understanding of economic dynamics.
Areas for Improvement:
Overly Dense: The paragraph packs in many ideas, making it feel rushed and potentially overwhelming for readers. Consider splitting it into two sentences for better flow.
"Carefree and Dismissive Attitude": This phrase is a bit strong. It could be softened to something like "complacency" or "overconfidence" to avoid alienating readers who might disagree with the tone.
More Concrete Examples: While familiar crises are mentioned, the "novel problems" remain abstract. Providing a few hypothetical examples could strengthen this point.
Revised Paragraph:
While concerns like inflated housing prices, potential stock market bubbles, and banking issues echo the 2008 crisis, we must not become complacent. History rarely repeats itself exactly, and a new economic downturn could stem from unexpected sources. For instance, the mounting government debt and the threat of resurgent inflation could trigger a different kind of crisis, one that requires novel solutions. It's crucial to remain vigilant and adaptable in the face of both familiar and unforeseen economic challenges.
This revised version maintains the original meaning while improving clarity and flow. The addition of a concrete example about government debt and inflation further strengthens the argument.
“This looks like it was written by an AI. I see more and more posts or emails where some just ask ChatGP to write something.”
Nope. The flood gates are open. If just 1% of the incoming have terrorist intentions, we are sadly ripe for another 911 in the USA.
I fear we have learned nothing.

There is a new video implicating the Saudi government for the 9/11 attacks:

Evidently, the families of the victims are claiming that this and other evidence were covered up :

By the way evidently our government is working on a plan to provide nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia, some reports are we are close to a deal:
