much of the U.S. Population actually shuns education. I was the first in my family to graduate from college and I can clearly see it whenever I correct someone or just state an obvious fact, both of which would require some1 to do more than just a Google search, I get this 'you're a know it all' attitude. I can see how some1 would just nit speak or even learn topics just so they can fit in better.

And that's another thing. The country has forgotten that elementary school ,and even high school I would argue, are to teach a young person HOW TO LEARN, how to think critically, and how to decipher text and pull out important info. This is not the kind of voters the rich establishment wants so we have to work even harder for enlightenment. Shameful shit
