Too sad. MANY times at the end of a year of me teaching US History, my students continued to ask me if Mexico was a state in the United States. Perspective explains ALOT.

Mark Dice has done some ‘Man on the Street” videos in CA where he asks people similar questions. (You Tube)
Yes, we posted many Dice videos on FOTM, but this video shocks even me. These young Americans can’t even name a single continent.

If this was not so profoundly sad, I would be splitting a gut laughing. When we consider how much money the USA throws at “educating” our young people, it is disheartening to see how downright ignorant these future leaders are.

A LOT of those “idiots” just weren’t even TRYING. I blame DRUGS. Johnny Carson used to do “Man on the Street” segments like this. Some of the looks he’d give especially dense people were Hilarious! I THINK he invented the “Mic Drop” during one of these segments…..

Well it seems the Dems have succeeded in dumbing the American Public down to Pathetic idiots. Sad basic Math, Geography, Spelling Fail Fail Fail so what are they teaching now? They can’t spell the name of where they live have no idea who’s in charge of things or even how far a car can travel when you even tell them. If this is what is going to take over in the future we are in deep trouble.

One might say, this is an edited piece and he only used the worst responses, but these are questions every young adult without mental disability should know. These people walk the streets of the great city, surrounded by the fruits of labor, ingenuity, capital accumulation, etc. and they know nothing. I wonder what it’s like to be someone like his. I wonder often if it’s all going to be taken away from us soon,
