Eli Broad Calls Americans “Fat, Dumb, Happy”

The U.S. ranked 21st with 78 percent of high school students graduating and going on to college in 2007, according to a 2009 survey. “The American people frankly have been over many, many years, to be blunt, fat, dumb and happy,” said Broad, 77. “If they want their children to compete with children in India, China or Korea, they better get them a far better education.”
