It sounds harsh, but the fact we do support our low intelligence population so much is a reason why they continue to flourish.

Nonetheless, we have the brightest minds in the world in our country.
*cought* some of the brightest minds in the world are in US, all we know that, but a high % of these super minds aren?t americans, they are they for money and resources. Btw, it's funny how you compare the 0.1-0.5% people with exceptionally minds with the rest.

It's barely known that the best universities in the world are in the us, but only a few people can go there. So, the high education its exclusive only for the people who can afford the universities fees or for some lucky people with scholarship grants. So have the best people there doesn?t mean you are like them
