“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that ‘my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.’”—
Isaac Asimov
I love when I see a quote like this that so elegantly lays out the crux of why things are screwed up.
