Answer 1

"AMERICANS STUPID?
Although I am an Australian, one thing that really annoys me is the constant refrain among non-Americans to the effect that Americans are stupid. How did a stupid people get to be one of the most prosperous on earth? How did a stupid people get to be the world's only superpower? How did a stupid people avoid ever having their cities bombed flat? How did a stupid people produce military equipment so advanced that no-one else can hope to match it? The Iraqi army put up a tenacious fight against the Iranian army but it just went home when a much smaller American military force arrived. How did a stupid people come to dominate the world with its cultural products? Ever heard of Hollywood or American popular music? And even Italians now make "Western" movies. How did a stupid people get to dominate the world with its products and business systems? Ever heard of Coca Cola, McDonald's or KFC? How did America get to dominate the world with its intellectual products? Ever heard of Microsoft or IBM or Intel or all the American Nobel prize-winners? How did a stupid people get to integrate successfully within their ranks large numbers of people from every country in Europe? South America and North America are both large continents well-endowed with natural resouces so how come there is no South American equivalent of the USA? How come prosperity stops at the U.S.-Mexico border? And how come it is Europe that invented both Communism and Fascism and that it was America that had to rescue them from both?

The truth is that Americans are a very wise and sophisticated people who very often affect a folksy style -- such as the style we see the high-achieving President George W. Bush or in the incredibly high-achieving investor Warren Buffett. But the REALLY stupid people are those who cannot see past the folksy style to the hard-working, dedicated, careful-thinking people beneath it. Only people as stupid as most Europeans could mistake style for substance. Really smart people would try to understand Americans rather than condemn them for having their own ways. They would see the folksiness as a sign of a less elitist and more democratic society rather than as a sign of stupidity.

And it is not only Americans who affect folksiness. Australia's most popular Prime Minister in the last 50 years was "Bob" Hawke -- a conservative in most ways but the leader of Australia's major party of the Left. Although he was so thoroughly bourgeois as to be the son of a Protestant clergyman and brilliant enough win a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford university, he normally spoke during his political career with a broad working-class accent. He certainly wasn't stupid but Australia too is a very egalitarian country where people of all classes are treated with respect. "

the jerry springer tutor is a comic strip of the yankee inhabitants. no wait.. scratch that. it is greater like a exciting abode replicate. springer will pay human beings to act abnormally on degree and initiate fights and flash themselves to spice up his rankings. it is all approximately ask your self fee. his tutor does no longer have lasted as long because it has if all his travelers have been in simple terms huge-unfold widely used human beings, so it is all in basic terms a freak tutor.

Answer 3

well...

anyone interested would be wise to rent the "comedy" that was out last year, called "idiocracy." because:

there is a greater and greater threat of our people becoming as congenitally mentally defective and stupid the more uncles take their nieces to their beds, as so often happens with all the relatives that live off of sales of meth amphitemine that they make when they are not making familial babies prone to hemophelia and other congenital abnormalities!

actually, as people become more and more addicted to staring at television shows rather than to reading BOOKS and NEWSPAPERS (or even reading informative and educational articles on the internet), they allow for their minds to wander off into Televisionland Oblivion.

witnesseth the gladiator battles that our own yahoo answers forum members have when they talk about RELIGION!

and heck, if it does come to pass, that means that the leaders to come may decide to park their relatives' trailer homes on the white house lawn! the beautification of america! ha ha ha! we'd better watch out... we could be forced to pay their health care bills and feed them food made by the cooks of the white house...

Answer 4

No, my IQ and almost everyone I know has an above average IQ. My sister is studying to become a Doctor, and I'm thinking about being a Lawyer and a business man. What are you going to do with your life, work at Mcdonalds?

Or work as a janitor at a grocery store?

Answer 5

Perry L, those are TV shows that need ratings. The producers find the most unusual people on purpose.

And President Bush, lets just say everything is for sale in our country (just like every other country).

Answer 6

Gosh no. I don't think I've ever even met anyone I could see being on one of those shows. I think most of them are just acting like the producers tell them to in order to get their 15 seconds of fame on tv. It's so not real. Hardly any Americans are actually that rude and trashy.

Answer 7

Definitely not on the west coast.....those people are usually coming straight out of their trailer parks in Oklahoma or Alabama or someother state near there...

Answer 8

Maybe if you didn't live with trailer trash you wouldn't think so.

Answer 9

Only in their own minds are their lives that dramatic and screwed up. Most people are just normal and they hate it, that's why people love reality shows.

Answer 10

i think some of those people are acting. now the fights are real but i doubt that the majority of America is like that. at least i hope not
