Okay, that was funny! I laughed my ass off. But to the point I was trying to make, I'm sure there are stupid people in all countries. The original video, and the one you just posted, show stupid people who happen to live in the USA. Can anyone out there tell me which country in the world has no stupid people? If anyone has an honest answer to my question, you are lying.

Of course there are stupid people everywhere, but United States has many many of them, and while in other countries ignorance is a proof of a bad economy or of an unstable political situation, what's the problem in US? The answer is simple: poorly designed education system, uninvolved parenting, and laziness.

I think you're mistaken if you think that the US is the only country with the problems you describe. With film editing you can easily make a video of stupid people even from advanced countries like the UK, France, Germany, or any European country for that matter. It has nothing to do with a good or bad economy. It has to do with the way people are raised by their parents and with that comes laziness and stupidity. Even the most advanced nations on earth have stupid people that would rather be homeless and ignorant than be responsible and productive.

quick question, since when do you have to be smart to kill people?

if the quartermaster (I have no idea what he would be called now so I use a semi-archaic(sp) term) hands a man who is mentally the age of three and told him to move his finger back and forth, he could kill ppl.

on a side not YES THEY ARE

Exactly. If we (the USA) spent the money we spend on unjustified wars on education, things could be very very different.

But there is a megatrend all y'all don't see. More on this later.

Firstly: It's spelled Antarctica
Secondly: Antarctica is not a country. It's a continent, but it's not an independent country.

antarctica is only not a country because you can't convince sane people to live there for more than a couple of years. Killing people is a bad thing to be good at. It just is, yes if there are NO OTHER ALTERNATIVES, it is necessary, but has the US really exhausted all other options?
