  Of course, to borrow from you, it's infuriating. You are forced "to drag" along "the confused" every day like Sisyphus. Similar to the "No Child Left Behind"?
  The poorly educated are easy to control, to manipulate, to swindle.
  How do we handle the better educated? How do we keep them under control?
  One way is by making them responsible for the poorly educated. They are then too busy to see how they too are getting swindled, just differently. Wearing multiple hats at a job? Another way of getting the work of many but only paying for one.
  I like paying my taxes, because I hate living with uneducated people.

  And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little mental handicap radio in his ear. He was required by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains.
  
  You don't need high intelligence, or way above normal intelligence. The screaming radios are in all our ears via controlled media, social media, our leaders, and our work places. We will not make progress forward until a solution is put in place.

  I mean I still can't get the republicans in my life to understand progressive taxation. They are still convinced that they can make less money if they barely cross over the threshold of a new tax bracket... For a group of people who like to waste so much air moralizing about fiscal responsibility and chiding other for how they spend their money, they don't know shit about any of it. >

  My god yes, this is infuriating to me. >
  
  Never get angry because people were never taught something.
  Be angry it isn't taught. >
  
  Thanks, I agree. These are good words to live by. 
  I do get frustrated though when I have to teach them about progressive taxation every time they bring it up yet forget by their next paycheck.
