I don’t understand this fetish Americans have with superiority. It’s like Lake Wobegon where everyone is above average.
To give you an example, 90% of Americans state that they are above average drivers. Obviously that is logically impossible.
Fully 25% of Americans think they are in the top 1% of the income bracket. I am not sure, but that may be around $300,000/yr. So full one quarter of Americans are so damn stupid that they think they make 300 grand no matter what their income is. I guess they failed elementary school math.
Fully 50% of Americans are absolutely certain that they will be millionaires one day. I believe 1% of Americans are millionaires. So 50% of Americans are absolutely certain that they will be in the top 1%. Ain’t gonna happen.
We see this in the Game Community where PUA fraudsters and con artists (and trust me, every single PUA guru is a fraudster and a scam artist) try to sell men PUA snake oil that insists that 100% of men can be in the top 15-20% of men (statistical Alphas) if only they try harder. I challenge every one of these PUA crooks to tell me how 100% of American men can end up in the top 15% of men. Is it some magic trick of math?
