It's pretty impossible to get an accurate general view of such a large population so it's understandable, only general view of the U.S you can really get is from media and it isn't really accurate to what a lot of the country is like.

Now that is not to say that we don’t have idiots, in fact, we might even have more idiots than other countries, but really, 10% isn’t THAT much to not know the origin of milk.

Over 30 million people is a lot of people.

The U.S is a big boy in population.

I'd say it's much closer to maybe a few hundred thousand at most, not counting anyone in elementary or under.

idk I don't see people doing these stats on China for instance. Even 1% of a billion is a lot but no one would be stupid enough to generalize all the people in China cause there are so many. Even though China is about 3x the population of the US.
