These UCLA students don’t know what the capital of the United States is. This is proof that getting into college is way too easy. No wonder why so many college students think that borrowing money doesn’t entail paying it back.

These UCLA students don’t know what the capital of the United States is. This is proof that getting into college is way too easy. No wonder why so many college students think that borrowing money doesn’t entail paying it back.
This new video from James Klug is called, “BRUTAL: Gen Z Fails To Answer The EASIEST Questions.”
He asks adults the following questions. They don’t know the answers:
What’s the capital of the United States?
How many stars are on the United States flag?
What ocean is on the east side of the United States?
What country is the Queen of England from?
What was Adolf Hitler’s first name?
What is two times two times one?
Who was the first President of the United States?
They don’t know the answers.
This is proof that getting into college is way too easy.
No wonder why so many college students think that borrowing money doesn’t entail paying it back.

Jessie Watters used to do this also. It always amazed me how little history or geography people knew.

It always amazed me how little history or geography people knew. It wasn't just geography. Across the board, people displayed their ignorance of just about everything that wasn't pop culture.
