    My fine aviatorial cephalopoda, they have to put warning signs to not drink battery acid from your car and that hot coffee will scald you. There are people out there that intelligence is indeed the issue.

      I think you need to look more closely at the McDonald’s coffee incident. The warnings are there so that they no longer get sued for causing customers ridiculously bad burns. The battery acid one is like “keep out of reach of children.” Again, a way to not get sued.

      That is about American litigiousness, not intelligence.

      I’m sorry, but suggesting that Americans are just stupid as if there’s some sort of stupidity field you enter when you cross the border or it’s some sort of genetic thing is silly. There are people of all levels of intelligence in the U.S., just like everywhere else.

        Spoken like a man who’s never worked fast food or retail.

          They have those establishments in other countries and let me tell you, they complain about the same things Americans working those jobs do.

            I understand the confusion, I meant a percentage of all people not just Americans.
