a reply to: Bilk22 It is irritating that even that many people didn't know. However he was probably there all day and more people knew the answer. I have seen this guy featured on infowars. The results aren't really scientific or a good sampling.

Cram as many kids into the classroom as you can...
Pay teachers poorly
Make school a social/propaganda process rather than education

Eventually...You get what you pay for.

TPTB don't want smart people; they want worker drones! The cultural design is working exactly like they planned.

a reply to: Bilk22

Our country is nothing more than a lie............It is not government causing the problems they are only a reflection of the people values. TPTB claim to fame is fear that leads to apathy.



Until we get our own backyards into order the community will continue to crumble apart.

The star and bars was flown by a southern army, in a losing effort to win a war against the USA, in an effort to allow the south to continue their economic way of life that depended upon slavery. Any other modern meaning attached to that flag is pure romantic revisionism. But hey, I'm sure YOU know the real meaning of the confederate battle flag though, huh?

Really?

India only barley on its feet, Pakistan not to great, Zimbabwe is a 3rd world piss hole.

And really the US government now is more #ty than ours.

WTF sort of history do they teach in schools nowadays...

Of course, the immortal words of Randy Quaid come to mind:
"Up yours"!

The men who fought on the front lines weren't the rich slave owners.
Just like today's Congress doesn't send their kids off to fight foreign wars.
The rich sit back and watch.
Draw your own conclusions.

Just shows why us Brits should be happy you guys parted ways

In some ways we won and got the better deal cutting you guys loose

You still have us, their crazy northern neighbors.

This is really sad, but I have to admit I am one of those people who when put on the spot like that (especially in front of the camera) clams up. I usually just turn bright red and walk off though instead of giving the wrong answer.

I wonder if anyone would have got it right, if the camera was not in their face?

And all this would have been reversed if the mighty British Empire had held it iron grip along side the east indian trading?Please, you didn't enlighten or hold up these countries you subjugated them. The USA just took over where the British empire left off although we're a little more hush hush when we oppress people

a reply to: alldaylong

Yup, a global super power with our closest ally the UK tagging along

I'm Canadian, and I delighted in Rick Mercer's series "Talking to Americans" when I was a kid, and I felt pretty high and mighty about it.

That being said, YouTube is big business, as a lot of people know, and videos like this get a huge amount of clicks because people LOVE to be outraged about something. YouTube's content creators exploit this in a huge way, often by casting videos like this with people who seem ridiculously stupid. Late Night shows are often doing the same thing.

So, before you get outraged about anything that happens in a YouTube video, realize that YouTube is about racking in advertising dollars.

Yeah of course it's for money and how Mark Dice does his videos(there are a few where he shares the correct answers). But it should be in no way an excuse for most of those answers.
