This country wide catastrophe is evidence that our stupidity far surpasses our intelligence. BTW we are ranked #24 in terms of intelligence worldwide. Surprised ? You bet !
We are an ancient civilisation lost in a modern world. We’ve been lost for the last 1000 years.
This was bound to happen. Pitiable.
I feel bad for the next generation. They have to suffer the crimes of their parents and grandparents.
