Afraid to be part of the Idiocracy

A comedy movie called "Idiocracy" that highlights the point that everyone will become idiots in the future. I never saw this movie before, but based on the trailer its pretty hilarious. Even though this movie was based on comedy it frightened me a bit, because it really makes me wonder if its even possible for our academic skills to drop so dramatically. And the movie is even funnier, assuming that the guy nominated as the smartest guy on earth, didn't even seem that smart in the year he came from. Watching the trailer, the message is clear to the audience. It seems that through out the years, people are becoming more and more ignorant and dumb. I don't know the history of how well people were educated, but we're definitely loosing more interest in our education then people from the past. I'd infer this because people in the past weren't always given the opportunity to go to school and get education, so they would envy the children who had that chance. But now when everyone goes to school, we wish it didn't exist. so in other words, we don't appreciate what is given to us. Also, based on what I've noticed now, there are more kids caring about other things in their life then school and as generation goes by, the less smarter people are. This movie may be true, because if this problem continues it can be possible that everyone will just become idiots.
