    We are stupid by choice. We are too lazy to stand up for what our forefathers believed in. We’d rather obsess over Michael jackson rather than our country going down the drain.

    The majority really isn’t. I can’t find one person OFF of Yahoo that agrees with the destruction our government is engaging in.

    The majority of Americans voted for Barack Obama. The majority of Americans are smart and engaged.

    I’d say the majority are ignorant, but a large percentage are also stupid. That’s a dangerous combination, especially when you throw some arrogance in there. But I think the majority are stupid and ignorant by choice. They are too lazy to read anything except crap on the internet. First you learn to read, then you read to learn. Lots of folks today would rather sit zombified in front of the TV than pick up any reading material of any significance.

    Choice. Many people choose to be lazy. We as a society need to change our mentality when it comes to education. People need to strive to improve rather than to just get by when it comes to education.
