A short question begs a short but accurate answer -- YES, it is no secret that the U.S. is the dumbest of all the developed nations; so how do we account for its criminal and other amazing successes -- short answer again, Americans are CAPABLE but extremely perverse.
Indeed, as the Guardian article suggests it is a matter of education, and in that regard we should all note that the nation that has emerged as a superpower in blistering historical time is China -- reason, education is FREE and only the best survive via an extremely harsh process of elimination/natural attrition -- 'user pays' societies never select the best, as truly gifted types often emerge from the most challenging and underprivileged environments -- you’d better believe it!
However, beware of maverick genius that was spawned in the harshest environments -- only two types live to survive, sociopaths and world changers. I ought to know, i are one!
Yes, I know, you do not have to inform me I’m being self-indulgent, but it’s a hard and lonely life on top of the mountain all by yourself -- hehe!
Que sera, sera!
All media discourse today is pointless and counter-productive, as it stifles direct action. The public is numbed by information overload -- it is all to no avail or worse, to negative effect. Stop the static and chatter and simply load and use your weapons. We all know what must be done and to whom! Declare open season on minority Plutocrats and all our problems will be solved --- yes, I know, another simplistic, reductionist statement; however it's not too far from the truth!
And don't forget to have a nice moronic day, dreamboats!
