America Is A Country Of Excess.

The American People May Not Be The Best-educated, But They're Very Wise At Heart.

We Just May Be The Most Well-informed, Yet Least Self-aware, People In History.

That's A Very Hard Thing To Help The Establishment Know. We're Still An Establishment That Thinks The Average Mentality Is Something Like 13 Years Of Age, That Never Forgot H.l. Mencken's Notion That Nobody Lost Money Underestimating The Intelligence Of The American People. That's The Horseshit The Establishment Has Always Lived With.
