Do you think that above is somehow due to that is discussed below?

from "Notes from a Big Country" by Bill Bryson

There are idiots in every country, Michael, obviously. In my son's
elementary
class, there are 22 kids; fifteen of them were tested for the GATE program
and
of 22 'average American kids' (five immigres from Eritrea, one from Iraq,
four
from Mexico, two from Somalia + six caucasian children and four latinos
that
were born in the USA), three qualified for Gifted and Talented programs -
none
of these were from overseas. So when you look at Russian schools, where
NO
ONE immigrates, and US Schools stuffed to the gills with immigrants, you
would
expect the results you get. That said, of course there are dumbass
American
kids. I feel better knowing that there are dumb****s in every nation -
you do
your best to prove that for us, daily.

Not to mention the fact that the great majority of inventions of the last 100
years
have been invented by Americans, including the computer and the internet that
Michael uses to spew his hate.

In the 1980s a Japanese prime minister said most Americans were illiterate and
uneducated. The response on bumper stickers and T-shirts was "The atom bomb:
designed by uneducated American engineers,

Mostly done by europeans who escaped from NAZI.

built by illiterate Americans

and it was build by the same persons.

and
tested in Japan"

That's true it was tested on the innocent civilinas by
american illiterate barbarians
