    I'm thinking Walmartians.
    At least i hope they are, otherwise we're doomed.

    Lets figure Wall Mart is the largest retail vendor in North America. Employees countless folk.
    With a 20 to 1 customer customer ratio on a slow day.

    Were doomed....

    Reminds me of the many episodes of Jaywalking...

    On citizenship...


    On geography...


    On science...


    (Full disclosure, I thought the largest organ in the human body was the liver!)

    What education system?you must have meant endoctrination system where students spend more time on things like gender neutrality and other BS instead of useful subjects

    While one can argue that many of the people in that video are uneducated immigrants and street freaks, there are dozens of similar videos shot on large American college campus.

    You don't know how much editing they had to do to get the desired video either.
    They may have asked 1000 people to get 10 that are that dumb.
    At least I hope so.

    I'm afraid not. I've seen this type of thing before. In our PC world we're so concerned about making sure that everyone fits. In reality not everyone can fit. The world can't function with everyone making the same income. Not everyone can be a millionaire.
    Not everyone can be a Nobel laureate. But today we're supposed to accept that the dumb s$&t next door has as much right to our high income as the true risk taking entrepreneur.
    Rant over.

    Am the only one whose blood pressure rises seeing the Liberty Mutual commercial depicting a young driver calling mommy because he can't change a flat and praises the insurance company from sending road side assistance?

    We re doomed

    It is sad.
    Naturally folk want to defend that people are not that stupid.
    After years in the Retail / IT service industry; I'm hear to tell you; YES, be embarrassed and concerned.
    I mentioned before; They breed and vote...

    That commercial drives me nuts too.
