The graphic image was too big, so I posted the link to the page. The comparison on the bottom pretty much tells the whole story. We're 20th in the world in per capita dollars spent on education and 1st in per capita dollars spent on incarceration.

So for the sake of argument, let's assume that the subject statement is legit. Who cares what most Americans think? Most Americans are idiots.
