REPORT: US adults are dumber than the average human

[mac_hine]

I've already watched this once and plan to do so again, taking copious notes. Everyone needs to see this!

I wholeheartedly agree. This is one of most informative interviews I've ever seen. Sadly Gatto suffered a series of strokes soon after they finished production. We should all be grateful to him and the folks at T+H for this remarkable gift.

He's with the 'Merica party, fuck yeah!!!!

Political Parties? Dur?

That's why in Idiocracy they use pictures.

What pisses me off most about this is that my income is below average. I suspect that government jobs wildly distort the income vs. intelligence axis though...

We're damn good at killing and blowing shit up. If the world were an MMORPG, the United States would be a retarded, level 50 Warrior with ridiculously high strength and hitpoints.

if you don't love obama that's 10 points off your score. don't believe anthropogenic pollution is the primary factor in climate change? that's an automatic fail. etc.

So I'm standing in the grocery line. Should know better than to talk about anything but the weather, but then I commented on the conversation these two guys were having. One was talking about the government just printing money at will. I knew where he was coming from, so I mentioned that guy who created all the silver coins to pay his employees.

The other guy then chimes in. He says, "I wish they would just print me up a bunch of money!"

Sometimes I think there are two kinds of people in the world. Those who get, and those who don't.

Oh well, guess I'm starting to sound elitist.

Is it possible this is anti-American propaganda, and not objective reporting? Don't we fundamentally KNOW how corrupt the entire news media is, how devoted to following the globalist line?? Why then should I believe this is an objective report about the 'intellectual level' of the population -- rather than more of their hateful attempts to incite and encourage self-loathing in Americans.

I see no reason to buy this libelous slander; Americans are NOT idiots and this is NOT the land of Idiocracy...
THIS is the country that was a shining example of human achievement, and that was not that long ago. So I ain't buying this poisonous "journalism" unless the NY Post can do MORE than just announce without proof that Americans are just hopeless. I say, Prove it.

 

[Henry Rogue]

Government ruins everything it touches eventually. Everything.

Can't wait for my obamacare colonoscopy.

 

[MRK]

This report did not survey anywhere close to a random sampling of humans. They surveyed the math, reading and writing skills of adults in first world countries.

Worldwide, US personnel capabilities are still orders of magnitudes better than the average human.

Completely wrong headline is completely wrong.

 

[HOLLYWOOD]

RIGHT HERE Moronic America... get this, on the frigin: The Learning Channel

The smart are getting smarter while the dumb are getting dumber. What we need is a responsible party to step in and mandate equal education opportunities for ALL Americans, not just for the super smart. Most people who are smart didn't even learn their own smart, they had it handed down to them by their smart parents. Most dumb people are simply not given the opportunity to make their own smart. Companies like McDonalds and Walmart only give their employees a below-thinking standard of smart. How are single parents supposed to raise their multiple children to be smart, when they themselves are so dumb? We need a solution to stop this inequality, the 1% of smart people cannot keep forcing the dumb and kind-of dumb to work for them with nothing in return. Call your congressman NOW and tell them to support the Smart Act of 2013. Its for the children, Hope we can believe in. Obama 2008.

They dumb each other down. The main culprits even go so far as to call it a game.

 

[fr33]

They want you obedient and ignorant.

I have seen this on other forums.


Do any of you consider yourself stupid? Why not?

I was in the military over 10 years (Asia, Europe and the Middle East), other military forces had our same equipment, but we always kick their ass if they weren't afraid to play. Don't get me started on the French. It still makes me laugh. Usually, to save face, they didn't even want to play.

I did two exercises in Israel. They talk the talk, but were just monitoring our maneuvers. Would not come up and fight us. They fight a bunch of "ragheads" that don't know what the fuck they are doing. I surmise, it was in the Israel's military interest not to fight us in exercises as their front line fighter pilots might lose confidence.
