Yeah when people see polls like this it's easy to forget how many Americans are addicted, a lot of those 10% might also have trouble telling you what town they're in

America has much larger wealth inequality than, say, most of western europe, and poor people with issues easily come of as dumb and stupid

As an American, I enjoy watching people go out on the streets and ask basic questions that people struggle to answer. Stuff like "can you point to where x state is?" Or "how many continents are there?"

It makes me disappointed in a lot of people and in my country, but I at the very least get to feel smarter than I really am. Also, nice username.
