Sure they edit out all the people that get the questions right, but there's really no excuse for not being able to answer basic general knowledge questions if you were born and bred in a country that claims to have one of the best educational systems.

Let's not forget that we're talking about a superpower here, people.
One that has proclaimed to set an example for us all.

because we (Amerikkka) are comprised of a race of ubermensch, right? or maybe you are saying yr home is? <--- I'm starting to think that this is what this thread was really all about.

there are more stupid people on this planet than anything else (except maybe ants and COCKroaches). finding two minutes of blathering fools to fill up a yout00b video would not be difficult NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE.

All I'm saying is that I expected a lot more from a so-called modern society such as the US or any other country for that matter.
No anti-americanism here, if that's what you're thinking.

"But in Epsilons," said Mr. Foster very justly, "we don't need human intelligence."

why are you embarrassed? these are the people flipping your burgers and cleaning your gutters-- they don't need to know geography for what they do. they just need to show up to work and do as the tv tells them.

what i mean is... everyone finds their place in the world, right?

"Alpha children wear grey They work much harder than we do, because they're so frightfully clever. I'm really awfuly glad I'm a Beta, because I don't work so hard. And then we are much better than the Gammas and Deltas. Gammas are stupid. They all wear green, and Delta children wear khaki. Oh no, I don't want to play with Delta children. And Epsilons are still worse. They're too stupid to be able …"
