That has little to do with whether they're simply unwilling to change 
because it would be too difficult. Sure, their critique isn't coming 
from idiots. But even some college educated folks are unwilling to do 
the "right" or "better" thing, simply because they're stubborn. (*cough* 
George W. Bush is a total zealot who refuses to change, lies in the face 
of his citizens, and sacrifices innocent lives because of what he 
believes is "right", as opposed to the other 2/3rds of the nation.





Oh, *cough.*)
