Por que no los dos?

I'm worried about both, and I can't say which I'm worried about more. What are the reasons you are concerned about one more than the other?

Governments are exceptionally powerful. In theory they have control of 50% of my income, as well as the police, legal system, and military. Genuinely corrupt government is one of the scariest things I can imagine.

If the government is not corrupt, I have optimism in being able to get through a personal attack.
