Funny how you mention the real threat "our government, but you fail to realize that many in Hollywood work with "our government."
There is a reason for the lack of education in America coupled with the superficiality in the form of entertainment that we practically spoon feed our
children.
To prove my point, go into any gas station/convenience store and or grocery store. Go find the magazine rack, upon discovering the magazine rack what
do you see? All of the magazines concerned with superficiality, celebrities, gossip, vanity, and sexuality are right there on the top row. You will
probably also notice a swarm of giggling women in there twenties who are far too old to be acting like they are still in High School eating up every
gossip magazine in the store.
Then notice directly below the Celebrity-crap-magazines that the science magazines like "Popular Mechanics" are hidden below and covered in a thin
layer of dust.
We have been raised to worship superficiality, these companies might just be trying to make money but if they put the same effort into building
intelligent people this world would be much different.
If there was no supply there would be no demand.
Look at how rampant addiction is, I wonder why, most people walk around feeling like they have some kind of a hole in their souls. A hole that they
fill with anything to numb them, but that happens when people have been spoon fed garbage. The human race wants more than the superficiality that is
given to them but they don't know where to look.
Except the television.
You're gonna have a bunch of dumb children.
