[Broke_as_****]

Ever look around at your fellow human beings and think "My god, how do you people breath without help?" or "Please put down the potato, you're just going to hurt yourself."

So then, I believe that I've honed in some numbers to a decently accurate fix on modern society in the US. This probably applies elsewhere but I don't live elsewhere so I can't speak for them.

Please note that there is much grey area here, but you have to draw the line somewhere and so I have.

15% Basic intelligence and up

This category comprises everyone who can do things as simple as their own taxes to guys like Stephen Hawking. They can think creatively (aka "outside the box") and use logic to problem solve. They will believe something reasonable but not only seek to confirm it; they'll look for alternative viewpoints. They like to learn and do things that expand their perceptions of the world whether they think of it in such terms or not. They will recognize when something is not working and attempt to fix the problem. They're likely to be alumni to a college or university but just as often they are the small town mechanic or cubical dwelling accountant who is the one people go to with problems they can't solve. The main virtue most of these people possess is the ability to identify that which is important and they don't let themselves get bogged down meaningless bullshit.

70% Stupid but capable of learning

"The mouth breathing majority." Mostly disinterested in that which does not directly effect them. They'll tend to believe most anything that will fit in with what they want to think, even if it is totally absurd. If they attended a place of higher learning it was probably with the singular intention to drink and/or smoke weed. Desires a large set of rims and probably watches TV shows that deal with what happened on other TV shows. This chunk of society tends to be obsessed with other humans, be they ex-boyfriends, Paris Hilton or the contestants of American Idol. They tend to complicate simple things and bring the majority of their woes upon themselves. The biggest problems these people face is staying focused and not becoming trapped in other peoples bullshit. However for all their faults if the time is taken for the proper training they can perform complex tasks. If something is laid out with proper explanation they can usually convinced to change foolish beliefs.

15% Hopeless

These people steal car stereos, argue with each other in front of their trailers, backstab the other mindless sluts at the country club and in general are a burden on the rest of society. They focus entirely trying to get what they want though through their own actions usually end up preventing it from happening. They are totally blind to the fact they are the reason their life sucks. They'll continue to believe ridiculous things despite clear evidence to the contrary and attempt repairs by repeating the same action that didn't work the first time until they break something else. They are probably on some kind of drug or may simply drink and smoke to excess. All attempts at education have failed and many can barely function in society. Employment is limited to the most basic grunt work for most although holding the job is essentially impossible.
