Take a knee OP, and open your eyes and your mind for a glorious tale of the good ol' US of A.

See there is this thing distribution of wealth, in countries much like yours I would imagine, there is a fairly equal distribution. America, however, believes it is better for wealth to be distributed unevenly so that you have a few people with fucktons of money, and a lot of people with no money.

Now you have to realize that idiocy, or rather the converse, intelligence follows a much similar pattern. The intellectual capital, if you will, of America is concentrated, and there exists a large majority of idiots.

Tide comes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication...

>> No.2515342

>>2515305
Why should Americans know who the president of Egypt is exactly?

Are we expected to know every president of every fucking country? If you went to Egypt and asked a bunch of people to point out Laos on a map and who their ruler was how many do you think would get it right?

Here's one. There are more articles if you Google it. This suggests 11% of Americans can't find USA on the map. I've seen figures around 20% as well.
