The more stupid, the better. The more damage that's done, the better. Even those who benefit the most from an educated, fed and healthy populace -- big business, for those who can't figure it out -- are the worse for making this situation come about. Where they think they'll be selling their products is a mystery. Most countries neither need nor want anything made in America, or by American companies. The market is dying, being put out of work, and changing so quickly that all that nice stuff you see in commercials is quickly becoming ingredients for a huge trash heap.
