With respect, I disagree: 2017 (and the next couple of years) have the potential to be severely risky to businesses, infrastructure and people. Attacks like Ohio State and London Bridge only require impulse and forethought, and are impossible to mitigate and counter. High-profile symbols of authority or opposing views?

Expansion of pre-disaster mitigation funding such as through the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities program, and new funding for infrastructure resilience embedded in the bi-partisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act are also steps in the right direction. And that is just the federal programs.
