Time magazine is out with their yearly issue of the 10 things that are going to change everything, or something like that. It contains many articles worth delving into and I highly recommend that you get busy reading it. Make sure and click the articles on the left-hand side of that page, they provide valuable insight into the American mindset.

Recently one of my readers questioned me as to why I’m always critical of America. The short answer is: it’s my responsibility as an educated citizen – it’s my duty to question. Remember, questioning is thinking.

And Time’s editor makes a salient point about the secret to America’s success, here in this :25 second video clip:

“…25 percent of [American] teens reported smoking marijuana in the last month.”

Take a minute and think about the significance of that number – 25%. Think of your three closest friends, then imagine that one of you is smoking dope.

Yes, one of marijuana’s many monikers is “dope”. That’s because this is a drug that makes people dopey. As in STUPID.

I wrote about this recently here.

Remember, the things you don’t know are more important than the things you do know.

That includes America. What kind of future can a country have when one out of four of her young people are ingesting drugs that they know will make themselves dumber?

American Unversities don’t really care about what you study or if you actually learn what you’re studying. All that really interests them is if you can pay for it. Don’t misunderstand me, there is absolutely nothing wrong with studying any of these subjects – if they interest you. What’s foolish is paying the HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of US Dollars to do so, especially when all of this information is freely available on the cloud that’s called the internet. That’s like paying to go use a bank teller to withdraw money when an ATM would accomplish the same thing, for free.

And some people laugh when I tell them that I’m going to build a university with just one major (LEADERSHIP).
