		<description>Thanks for understanding Proud.  I talk to a representative crossection of this country every day.  their general level of comprehension is sad.  Many of them cannot understand the simplest concept of what makes this country run.  Too many have an entitlement attitude without a balance of responsibility. I am even appalled at t he disconnect of CPAs and lawyers.  Cause and effect should be the first thing taught to everyone. On the personal level, being responsible for one&#039;s own actions is long lost in this country. No whining when the consequences come home to roost ... Teaching people to read is the first step toward an informed population.</description>

		<description>wow BK that is sad, scarey, and frankly mind boggling. The ramifications as you say do not bode well for a democracy which even in its best forms does require an informed population. Our current form of so called democracy requires a dumbed down population...sounds like mission accomplished. and of course the MSM can take full advantage..

 i was just reminding someone..that the vast VAST majority of the country of 300 mil. plus people not only do NOT read BLOGS but they do not know what a blog is. Its foolish when A list bloggers surrounded by other like minded people - generalize this to the population at large. I am afraid their outlook is over optimistic about the speed of which people are seeing through what is going on in america today..

sad,informative post ! thanks.</description>
