Once again Ken's masterful use of the language succinctly answers  Lashdeep's 
question and provides commentary on oh, so much more!
 
That pretty much sums it all up, sad as it is.
 
Dumb and dumber,

You mean when they lower the SAT scores to  avoid exposing the  
educational wasteland that is government schools?  When taxes are  
deducted at the workplace prior to cutting paychecks  so all the poor  
dumb proles never realize how much of their daily  take is being  
shoveled into FedGovCo blast furnaces to keep DC warm?  When no one  
can name their congressman let alone even one of their  two senators,  
but everyone can readily recite the names of all the  finalists on  
Dancing With The Stars? When even Ferraris come without  a clutch and  
Lexii can parallel park by themselves, when Mercedes  slow down  
automatically if you cruise too close to the next guy?  When most  
people actually believe an increase of 2.5 ppm in trace  atmospheric  
CO2 levels is gonna kill us all and we must therefore  bring western  
capitalist society to a grinding halt before all the  penguins have  
ruptures from sticking to the Antarctic  mud.,,,,

Jeez, I dunno...what was the question  again?
