If as many as 60% of American adults read below a sixth-grade level, it is hardly surprising that ignorance has found fertile ground in the country. While low literacy does not equal stupidity, it undeniably creates an environment where nuance is drowned out by catchy slogans and complexity is easily sacrificed for spectacle. In a society where critical reading and informed analysis are uncommon, ignorance is not merely tolerated; it is often celebrated. Layer on the amplifying power of social media, a culture of anti-intellectualism, and the rise of celebrity-driven politics, and you have a nation where folly is not only visible but, disturbingly, venerated.
Young people in Nepal just burned the Communist Parliament, burned the Hilton Hotel and dragged out political figures. They also stormed into the homes of billionaires who have profited off them getting poorer and poorer. Makes me wonder about the abuse we have taken in the West.

please do a podcast on all the joy and beauty to be still found in this world... this is how we help change by rising the vibration not all this constant doom all the time !
The US is declining, in its economy, academic and morality.
I love how he essentially says that he hated going to school and learning about history, and then went to work as a stock broker and realized that he had to learn history.
I wish someone told me when I was a kid, that being a kid is the only time you live the American dream now
Left vs Right is a smokescreen to distract from Rich vs Poor. Keep us fighting each other while getting fleeced.
Social media is 100% to blame for the decline in literacy. People would rather watch a video with short talking points than actually read and research. This is why the U.S Congress can get away with putting 20 unrelated things into one bill. The bill becomes 100+ pages with big words and fluffy language that the average American doesn't have the time or attention span to read. Make things so tedious and demanding people will ignore it.
He is in touch with reality in a way that many will never understand. Money seems to be a byproduct of his passion. There is a beauty in achieving wealth without caring about the outcome.
