stupid is as stupid does.

"Can we cut spending on education? We TRIED pouring money into that sinking ship, and it’s clearly not working. Stupid people are everywhere. Let’s just cut our losses"

In reference to the debate, and what we should cut spending on. Considering people keep saying we can't cut spending in it, this might almost be a serious question to raise. Stupidity is spreading a lot faster than knowledge and wisdom. And it might be a function of the public educational system that it is doing so. Maybe cheaper to admit stupidity exists.
