I can't live in a nation of idiots.

Have you noticed the extreme number of stupid people there seem to be in the world right now? No really, there are a lot of idiots out there right now. It use to be every so often, mother nature would get her scrub brush (some kind of plague or sweeping illness) to come along and wipe out a large portion of humanity and clean up the gene pool a bit.  But, she hasn't done that in awhile, so what happens, the pool gets a little dirty, and over run...with stupid people.

You're probably thinking to yourself, 'oh my, Dana, that's harsh'. Really? In your day to day life, how many idiots do you know? I mean IDIOTS. The type of people that you wonder often how they made it to adulthood.  That can't seem to accomplish a single, simple task on their own. Someone that, if we were living in the time of the warriors of Sparta, they would have been left on a mountain top for wolves at birth or in some cases, just tossing them off, like what Hera (or Zeus depending on the telling) did to Hephaestus. (That's right, I went Greek mythology on ya!)

I think we're getting dumber as a people in general. We don't read anymore, we don't right, we don't allow ourselves to be creative anymore. How many TV shows and movies are coming out of hollywood nowadays are remakes of old tv shows and movies? Where's the originality? I remember spending hours outside playing as a kid and now it seems kids spend more time inside trapped, in a box, stifling their creativity, their mind.

We became such a strong nation because of our innate American ability to be able to think and see unlike any other country in the world, and now that we're becoming like every other country in the world, we're losing that which made us different, special.  We need to get it back, back to that creativity and uniqueness. Because I can't live in a nation of idiots. It gives me a headache just working with idiots and I for damn sure won't raise my children to be part of them!
