The dumbing down of America, and its already happening.
WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.”
― George Orwell
An educated, well-informed population, the kind that a functioning democracy requires, would be difficult to lie to, and could not be led by the nose by the various vested interests running amok in this country. Most of our politicians and their political advisers and lobbyists would find themselves unemployed, and so would the gasbags who pass themselves off as our opinion makers.
And we even have one party that belittles education and intellectual activity, because they believe that public ignorance is their strength.
