21; 2 simple points to convince any rational person Americans are so stupid that it's hopeless
1 More than half of us still believe in creationism, even after humans have invented genetic engineering. This is artificial evolution. It has been done, and is being done continually. It is no more a "theory" than gravity. Gravity is also a "theory" in the scientific sense of the word. This does not mean that things might not fall down.
2 We don't use the metric system. It's better in every way - how many mm in a cm? 10. How many cm in a m? 100. How many m in a km? 1000. How many mm in a km? 1,000,000. How many grams of water in 15 cubic cm? 15.
How many inches in a mile? Who the fuck knows? How many ounces in 15 cubic inches? good luck, better have a reference book and calculator handy.
The entire rest of the world knows this, but not America.)
As long as these two facts remain true, how can we expect anything substantial to get better?
