Guys - "The Government"? Really?

What is "the government"? It's a collection of real estate professionals, professors, doctors, lawyers, farmers, etc. https://www.senate.gov/CRSReports/crs-p ... %5CC%3F%0A

"Government" is made of the same people who are being "dumbed down". There's no conspiracy by some super-intelligent group of people to keep the masses placated by running Real Housewives reruns. There's a 90% chance that the spouses of these same government officials are also watching the same shows.

The government is truly "of the people".

Of course it's not a conspiracy, it's a culture. It's just stupid.

Personal ambitions and desire decides for each of us. Education will never be cookie cutter equal. Access to it might be, but it stops there.
The hardest part of doing nothing is knowing when your done.
