    What is interesting about this is any individual who thinks for themselves would recognize both the fact the stooges answers were planned and that they were the only test subject, same as the Milgram experiment.

    This is why democracies are imperfect, it should be only that 10% who get to cast a vote as the entirety of the rest can not be trusted to evaluate anything let alone ideologies and mandates.

    You are unintelligent enough to fail to recognize that the 10% has nothing to do with being educated.

    You have the level of English comprehension that I would expect from an average person and thus are an excellent example of why 90%ers should be disenfranchised.

    Thanks for your assistance - I have taken the time to block you so I will not be able to reply further :(

    Toodle-pip!

    So the same should happen with the members of the jury in a trial, I guess.

    The experiment is right on for the time but I think people have evolved some. People today tend to be more outspoken and are not afraid to speak what they believe to be true. Not saying this is always true but it is becoming more true every day with the awakening of people to their surroundings.

    ALL THE LINES ARE EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE - THEY ARE JUST DIFFERENT DISTANCES AWAY SO SOME SEEM BIGGER THAN OTHERS. I SEE THE WORLD IN 3D ;)

    Well with that reply you have convinced me for certain that you are "very intelligent" and certainly " in the 10%".

    Best wishes to you also.
