I mean, sometimes we make mistakes and bad judgments and kind of back the wrong regimes and things, but by and large what America does is really good.

You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t even reliably cross a street without endangering your life.

An arts graduate is not going to fix global warming. They may do other valuable things, but they are not going to fix the planet or cure cancer or get rid of malaria.
