It's truly scary that so many people are so stupid. Yet they still found their way to the polls.
Many of them are book smart and even street smart to a degree - e.g. office politics. However, like many "Urban Gold Coast" types, they drank a certain ideological Kool Aid at some point and still are true believers in Socialism-lite - FOR THE CHILDREN - IT TAKES A VILLAGE! (Barrrrrrrrrrrffffff!)
