Should be in NY Times editorial page. But...people like Bush, they’ve always liked Bush; always liked America. Bonzo the Chimp could be president, people would say - he must be smart and revered, he’s our leader. People are stupid, we can stipulate that; it’s a given. But why? You’d think they’d be mad, vengeful. Never gonna buy a used car from CheneyRiceBush again. But they’re not. Would rather drive that lemon to their grave. Would actually die in places where CheneyRiceBush are scared to set foot in. People are stupid (and me too). But why? Some were raised to think, others weren’t. Some sought out the hardest courses on campus - philosophy, just to learn; knowing they’re no almighty dollars there. Why is that? Humints are curious, by nature. Children want to learn, to know. Why and how do we crush that? This is the key, the source of power to affect change - to confront and change the stupid. Good point about rats and sinking ships. Should be in NY Times editorial page.
