>In a nation called the world's superpower, only 17 percent of young adults in the United States could find Afghanistan on a map, according to a new worldwide survey released today.
>The National Geographic–Roper 2002 Global Geographic Literacy Survey polled more than 3,000 18- to 24-year-olds in Canada, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Sweden and the United States.
>About 11 percent of young citizens of the U.S. couldn't even locate the U.S. on a map. The Pacific Ocean's location was a mystery to 29 percent; Japan, to 58 percent; France, to 65 percent; and the United Kingdom, to 69 percent.
>Despite the threat of war in Iraq and the daily reports of suicide bombers in Israel, less than 15 percent of the young U.S. citizens could locate either country.
>Particularly humiliating was that all countries were better able to identify the U.S. population than many young U.S. citizens. Within the U.S., almost one-third said that population was between one billion and two billion

Ignorance and lack of travelling.
Not to mention that travelling costs money, which 90% of Americans dont have.
Americans are dumb as fuck, more news at eleven.
How do you keep a population under controls? Make them obese, dumb and painfully patriotic.
There are less than 0.1% that are not dumb and most are /pol/ posters lel.

What the fuck is this new money laundering scheme and who is this rat faced faggot? Should I invest my shekels in this?
Why is /biz/ falling for it?

Only after you invest in waste management.

it is a crypto currency that is designed to handle larger volumes and larger markets than what bitcoin can. which is bitcoin's flaw. It is slow and bulky. /biz/ is falling for it because they apparently make lots of money speculating in it. Some people there seem to know about ether in detail, but I think most are in it for the quick dollah billz.

Amazed no state has CP #1
It's pretty pathetic how Trumpeters are trying to spin Super Saturday into a win. He severely underperformed in polls, avoiding losing 3 states and only narrowly winning Louisiana which was heavily skewed in his favor.
Early voters were also the majority of his votes, meaning his debate performances and other attacks are having an effect on him.
It's almost guaranteed that Trump will have a terrible performance in the debate on the 10th which will just drop his polls down even further. Combined with his recent flip flops on key issues and mistakes like the KKK (which would have never been an issue if he didn't say he didn't know who David Duke was), Trump's done for.
Cruz has also showed that he can win non-evangelical states (Maine). He's our only hope. I'll be changing my vote to him and I hope you do too.
Trump would be an easy win for Hillary thats why everybody thinks he's a planted opposition by Democrats and Jews.
>>66425280
That was the original con, but being the opportunist that he is, he's riding it all the way through.

How accurate is that?

Stannis is not corrupt or morally bankrupt though. Cruz is.
Tyrion and Cersei were never friends.
Tyrion is a witty perv, not wealthy, not a good negotiator.
Tyrion is popular among SJW because "wow, a dwarf can act, how heroic of him".
Stannis doesn't eat his boogers.

Too bad he got caught.

truly newsworthy
Let us for a moment suppose that through some sort of magic it was brought about that all crimes were instantly prevented and punished automatically.
For example.
>>If you were to walk up to someone, put a gun to their head, and pull the trigger. the bullet would miraculously trans locate to your head instead and kill you, not them.
>>If you subdued a woman and were about to rape her several large burly men would appear out of nowhere and brutally rape the living hell out of you, giving her time to abscond, and then disappear after they have finished.
>>if you steal something not only would you come to find that you do not possess the item/money you stole, but that your bank account had been drained in the exact dollar amount you would have stole and has been donated to the person/business you would have stolen from. or, if you are broke, you are now in debt up to that level.
>>If you got drunk and decided to drive. and were about to collide with an innocent motorist. All of a sudden an exact version of your vehicle would appear and slam into you instead. doing exactly to you (damage, injury, death) that you would have done had you struck their car.
basically all crimes sort themselves out and eye for an eye is automatic while at the same time preventing the crime that would have occurred.
I ask... would you support this?
because I would fully support this and see it as a good thing. especially if you consider that only crimes where there is a VICTIM are being taken into account. not silly shit like J-walking when the streets are empty or traffic violations that aren't hurting anyone else.
BUT I would bet that most liberals would still bitch and moan and complain that this system is somehow unfair. that somehow this is victimizing minorities or some other such nonsense.
what do you think pol?
what would the world be like under this magical system?
Yep. Full support. Sounds like a utopia.
Everyone would be huge pussies but, they'd be super nice too
And I bet technology would progress like 20x faster than currently if we aren't busy fighting degenerates 24/7
They had something like this on an episode of Red Dwarf, it was called the justice field.
