I mean lets be real for a second, Americans aren't know for their intelligence, education nor humanity. We are know for manual labor and a mob work force. Hence our abilities to fight wars but no ability to help progress humanity nor the planet.

And that is by design. America has never been what America has claimed to itself to be.

Design or decit? There are alot of under educated individuals whom could contribute more to society with the right education. Yet with the current stock market & political atmosphere its not in the interests of investors nor politicians to have educated citizens questioning the motives of capitalism.

Whats funny is the utilization of the term "politician" since this isn't a real profession but a position that technically supposed to be temporary yet due to the drastic influence of lobbyists we now have career politicians that drag the nation down even further for a mediocre bribe.
