18. Hey, most Americans can't define the Bill of Rights

According to a study done some time ago, when typed up on plain office stationery, mall-goers were asked to endorse the Bill of Rights. Not only did the vast majority of them not recognize them, about one third refused to sign on to them, citing that they sounded too "commie".

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid.
