I admire your spirit, and in my heart I certainly agree with you.

A quick anecdote though, that I believe is indicative of just how dumbed down the population has become:

Yesterday I purchased a couple of items in a drug store, and the amount came to $19.63. I thought for a moment, looked at the cashier and stock person and said “1963 wasn’t a very good year, was it?”

They both looked at me like i was from Pluto. I said, “Well, that was the year Kennedy was shot.” More blank looks.

I said “You knew that, right?”

They both shook their head no, and one said, “No, I didn’t.”

If you think the majority of the next generation is going to be thinking about anything more than entitlements, govt benefits, and haveing sex, playing video games, and being dumb-down, all i can say is, “Houston, we have a problem.”

The Idiocracy is coming.
