The general public is stupid. I really mean that. Uninformed, under educated.
I don't mean that about anyone here. I don't regard anyone here as stupid.
This is why I pay little attention to polls. I don't care what the general public thinks, to be frank. Most of that general public can't find Mississippi on a map (according to a recent study.....the reaction to the study was "we need a special program to deal with this lack of knowledge". Seriously. How about school to deal with this lack of knowledge? Anyway, I digress....).
The "gas price" question doesn't surprise me in the least, because our society has been led by politicians to believe (sadly, my republican party is now counted among those) that government is there to solve all of our problems. Gas prices too high? The President should be able to fix it!
Bleh.
