Among 18- to 24-year-old Americans given maps:

87 percent cannot find Iraq
83 percent cannot find Afghanistan
76 percent cannot find Saudi Arabia
70 percent cannot find New Jersey
49 percent cannot find New York
11 percent cannot find the United States

Holy fuck, how retarded do you have to be not to find your own country the size of a gaping vagina on a map. Americans fail.

LOL AMERIKKKA. Thank god I wasn't born in America. My dad once asked me if I wanted to go to America and I refused cos all the statistics show America is full of fat, ugly, ignorant, uncultured , retarded pigs.

You should come here at least once. Many people here serve as good examples of what not to be. You'll also learn a valuable lesson; not to overestimate people's intelligence. One thing you'll learn living here is that people aren't as smart as you'd like to hope.

I doubt anyone born and raised in America wouldn't be able to find the USA unless they were mentally handicapped.
These surveys include all types of people, including the retarded and the uneducated immigrants

I don't think you have to observe these examples before knowing that you shouldn't be like them.

That being said, isn't there another thread with similar statistics? Wasn't it agreed upon that despite these statistics the US still dominate most fields of science and engineering? I mean, who gives a fuck about the common people?

I think immigrants should at least be able to find the USA on the map. I mean, how they could have gotten here if they couldn't do that?

Nah. All Mexicans know is that America is past that fence, and all oversees immigrants know is that America is one boat trip away
