Why does this keep getting deleted?

I'm trying to point out that most people are measurably stupid.

The U.S. government's National Assessment of Adult Literacy shows that only about 15% of U.S. adults can show proficiency in the prose and document literacy categories and only 13% can show proficiency in the quantitative literacy category. Recent four year college grads did better with about 40% being able to show proficiency in prose and document literacy and 34% being able to show proficiency in quantitative literacy.

I don't know if I'm stupid, but my sense of deja vu is JUST FINE.

Please go away.

And apparently the question answers itself...

In fact, I always assumed I was the most stupidest on this board, but now I got some serious competition

I suppose only the "smart" people can decipher those charts, because to me, they sure look confusing.
