Why are some Americans so stupid? I've been reading this book called "A Peoples History of the United States." and it's pretty interesting. I think Southern Americans got used to slaves a couple hundred years ago, and when slavery was suddenly abolished, they just never stopped being lazy. Give them a book, and proper education, and I think they could be just as smart as us.
Not the question, but....LOL. Yea, alright. |
There some sort of Pride at being ignorant with many Americans (US Citizens). I find it a rather odd and baffling thing. A number of people are arrogant and proud of the fact they know little of the outside world.
I remember I was scheduling something in Ohio and it was a Friday and they asked me to come back on Monday, cause their computer was down, or something like that. I said, "I will be out of State next Week."
The lady looked at my with a outraged concern and said, "Why would anyone ever want to do that?!?" (she was serious.)
Now it isn't all of them by any means. But a number do not want their ideas that they have the best of everything be challenged by learning about other places.
