Science fiction writer Ben Bova wrote:
The most prescient — and chilling — of all the science fiction stories ever written, though, is “The Marching Morons,” by Cyril M. Kornbluth, first published in 1951. It should be required reading in every school on Earth.

The point that Kornbluth makes is simple, and scary: dumbbells have more children than geniuses. In “The Marching Morons” he carries that idea to its extreme, but logical, conclusion.

Kornbluth tells of a future world that is overrun with dummies: men and women who don’t know anything beyond their own shallow personal interests. They don’t know how their society works, or who is running it. All they care about is their personal — and immediate — gratification.

A comedy with similar reference....Watch the trailer......click me

Dylan Ratigan Discusses The Great Financial Con Job With Alan Grayson And Bill Fleckenstein

A great job by Ratigan.
Unlike the Limbaugh, Beck and the Hannity bozo's who find a need to put the blame on Dems, Acorn, Gays, Immigrants or black people that took out subprime loans ......... Dylan puts the blame where the blame should go and leaves the politics out.
3 or 4 years too late, but at least now folks have someone on the MSM that doesn't put that much of a spin on it.
