How many of you out there don't know (or don't care) that there are SOME informed people on this site?

Question

So many of the answers that are factual and accurate (and not just mine) are disregarded that I am slowly beginning to feel that there is an inordinate amount of insensitivity and frivolousness in our country. So much so that we don't foresee or acknowledge avoidable crises even when they are obvious. Is there a mature and "non-moronic" approach to some of the deficits (and I don’t mean just the budget) that are all too prevalent in our great country today? And how can we get people (Americans) to respond to the challenges that face us in the manner that this country as a people dealt with true challenges in the past? I am in fear that if we as a country don't begin to take some things more seriously (as boring as that may seem or be to some) we may wake up one day and find that we don't have the influence to help guide the world on a course that is beneficial to all (from the bush people of South America and Africa to the countries with the most futuristic ambitions and abilities).

Answer 1

I believe that there are a disproportionate rate of immature and young children on Yahoo Answers, and that is why sound advice is rarely taken on board. You were a child once and acted exactly the same way! That old saying still rings true. "You cannot put an old head on young shoulders" True?

Answer 2

That is a well written statement below the question. The question itself however is anyone's guess. My guess is anywhere from 7 to a bunch. There are several sites dedicated to informed individuals who are not only your intellectual equal, but share your disposition as well. These are Yahoos here. Fat dumb and happy Yahoos. Their effort to solve world issues are centered around fixing theirs first. For anyone to request an entire community to get smart enough to engage you, an individual, in stimulating discourse whose value is arbitrarily decided by you is a bit much to ask without sounding vain. You can't expect, nor would you like, everyone to be as smart and cool as you. That would make you an average Yahoo. So give 'em a break.

Answer 3

So you think that ONLY people like you should answer questions in this site??? I'm sorry my friend but you have to understand that all the people have the right to speak freely and answer if they want to! Some are not informed , some are! When someone is sharing a personal experience with you or answering according to his knowledge you must appreciate  it! If you don't like their answer read the next one...And just so you know (that goes for an answer I read) 16 year old in our times can be more informed than a 40-year -old!

Don't underestimate the others!
