Actually there are bunch of folks that take the words from TV as 'holy', they are the FX Nws watchers...
Being an immigrant myself, I have had my fair share of conversations with people who think visa's are stealing their jobs, coal mines are the future and that people who are immigrating with Doctoral scholarships to US to work for IT companies are stealing jobs from people working at McDonalds!!!
I have met a 16 something American dude to buy something off of craigslist and he and his 3 buddies were not able to do the math of $370 - $360. I am NOT exaggerating. With that kind of IQ of people who are fed FX Nws and greasy faucets who believe in the future of coal mining NEED to bring as many people from foreign countries as possible to keep the edge of this country...
Otherwise it will not be long before this country get thrown to dogs.
I told my colleagues about bitcoin and why they need to study them (I never recommend anything, I give them sources for them to read up/make their own decisions, in a sort of opinion way).
They looked at me like I was some kind of hipster who is high on 10 different drugs at once, that was it, my duty was done and I am going to just sit there and re-visit my advice to them in 2020!
I have not bought any BTC of my own but have invested small savings (periodic) into alt coins and may bring some BTC to my portfolio after August forking storm...
Trump meme - I wonder when that will get old, its fkng hilarious now though!
Thank you Stephen for the opportunity to vent with a cause!
