I just finished a very good book, yes suas I can read.
There was a table that the author asked his college students to fill out. It went somthing like this.
In 1971, Americans were polled asking them if they supported the war in vietnam, and the results were divided into groups depending on their educational level. People who responded "I don't know" are omitted for the reason that they were dumb.
____________College ___High School___Grade School__totaladult
% for
withdrawal________________________________________ 73%
% against
withdrawal________________________________________ 27%
Each educational column must equal 100%.
Now your job is to fill in the blanks at what you think the polled individuals said.
This is ofcourse assuming that you believe that the war was indeed wrong in one form, and that the U.S. did more damage than good.
I will post the true results when enough people (five or so) have responded.
The point of this exercise will give you an idea about how you REALLY feel about society. And don't worry, when I answered it I had to slap myself for putting what I did.
