I wanted to add, while it may seem a bit paranoid of me to suspect a deliberate dumbing down of America, it would not surprise me. And maybe in the very least, the majority doesn't seem to know or care that America does seems to be dumbing down.
My local Barnes & Nobel has 1 small section of Essays, one small section of philosophy, 1 small section of science. Contrast that with multiple aisles of religious and new ages books.
