Are American's really the most stupid?

Re: Are American's really the most stupid?

funny you should mention that.

last time I was in Helsinki the only TV show I could understand was all about making Brits look stupid.

Apparentlly (I've never seen it) there's also British shows about "white Eurotrash" with the reverse aim.

I suspect your contest will fizzle Eric. The schtick only works because Americans are relatively wealthy and would-be hegemonists.

i.e. there's no incentive for someone to to stick a mic in the face of lower-middle class Europeans and try to make them look stupid. Who cares what they know/think?

Re: Are American's really the most stupid?

This is a series of videos created by a some Australians and Canadians trying to make the point that Americans are the most stupid people on earth. Are they right or are they just good at interviewing stupid people that happen to be in the USA?

Not even sure they're particularly good at it. It's easy. All you need to do is go out with a mic and camera and ask lots of people lots of questions. Then throw out the right answers.

Isn't the % of college degree holders still much higher in the US than in most other western nations?

Colleges/universities also score consistently higher on international rankings than those in any other country.

yet the data also shows that u.s. college students are learning progressively less, and studying progressively less, while in college. then there's the testing data for younger children, showing poor performance in the u.s.
