Why the world thinks Americans are idiots/Stupid!

[healthmyths]

The world sees idiot Americans getting all bent out of shape highly agitated over some really stupid things like the following:

1) 1,179 Keystone pipeline environmental problem --- while there are already 185,000 miles of USA oil pipelines!
The world asks what's the big deal in adding another 1% of pipeline to already 185,000 miles? Scratch their heads at the stupidity!

2) The world gladly accepts US companies coming to their countries when they read that union workers get $65/hour to cut grass off-shore.
These countries gladly lower their tax rates leaving American companies paying the highest taxes!

3) The world says what is the problem with Americans' math when they read 1/6th of America's economy is totally heading for destruction for less then
5 million people that want and need health insurance? The world can't understand why Americans haven't figured out that when Obama said he
preferred a single payer system... THAT MEANS Obama favors 1,300 health insurance companies go out of business that pay $100 billion a year in taxes
and employ over 400,000 people...

4) The world can't figure out why Americans are happy with a President that has clearly stated he wants higher gas prices. He wants utility companies
to go bankrupt and utility rates to skyrocket! The world scratches it's head and says Are Americans really that stupid??

5) The world asks Americans are you stupid in wanting to put at least another 1 million people out of work by raising the minimum wage that affects
less the 3.3 million people that make minimum wage!

6) Finally with over 168 million people say that'd like to go to USA the world countries are HAPPY when USA borders are letting thousands come across
while these countries get rid of the people they don't want! The world is happy with the stupidity of Americans!!!

The French think everyone is stupid, other than the French...

The point of the thread that common sense seems to be seriously lacking in America today.
I mean when idiots want a 1 barrel tanker traveling 1 mile versus 700 barrels in a pipeline traveling one mile????
Or when idiots 10 million non-Americans,14 million that DUE to the inefficiency of Medicaid aren't covered, and 18 million that don't want insurance to come up with bogus 46 million ... the world says Americans can't do simple math!
These are examples of how the majority of Americans that believe these bogus points makes Americans laughing stock
of the world...!

Oil Tankers move approximately 2 billion metric tons (2.2×109 short tons) of oil every year.

Almost 500,000 miles of interstate pipeline crisscross America, carrying crude oil, petroleum products, and natural gas.

review of safety and accident statistics provided by the U.S. Department of Transportation for the extensive network of existing U.S. pipelines—including many linked to Canada—clearly show that, in addition to enjoying a substantial cost advantage, pipelines result in fewer spillage incidents and personal injuries than road and rail. Americans are more likely to get struck by lightning than to be killed in a pipeline accident.[1]

Per the below graph..
Pipelines CARRY nearly 80% of all Crude oil and petroleum products.. nearly 4 times carried by pipeline versus tankers..

So again 500,000 miles of pipelines across the USA and Obama and other environmentalists contest the safety of adding 1,719 miles or 0.003% to the 500,000 miles?
