Not to kick my fellow country members in the balls or snatches while they are down, but for the resources and opportunities presented to us, we are pretty fucking ignorant to learning. Hostile if you are the lower educated, aloof to new knowledge as you go up the degree ladder. This isn't all, but I know that while growing up, to be smart was a curse. Fortunately, I didn't have that problem... See, I'm still acting like I'm a regular Joe.

Unfortunately, our country has been highly successful with this attitude since its formation, so what the hell does that tell you... Oh, yeah... we fucking take what we want, so no need to outsmart nobody.

the degeneration came in time, it wasn't there since its formation...

the US used to kick ass...

US still does kick ass. It's jut our own asses we kick,these days

so to combat the american standard of ostentatious ignorance, she writes a book. good plan, i'm sure it'll sell like hotcakes

Actually, American ignorance to the man and formalized education goes all the way back to the formation of the United States. Since it was considered a pursuit of the ruling class (British), many colonists and their offspring came to show disdain for the pursuit of knowledge and preferred to kick ass and take names. Don't be so fucking ignorant and learn something you AIDS ridden Costa Rican.

I didn't really need to know this.

aids ridden? damn! you're pathetic!
...actually, you're from wisconsin...
