blogs.chicagotribune.com — Every once in awhile, we newspaper columnists, raging and fulminating at our keyboards, go too far -- we overstate, we gloss over nuance, we generalize unfairly, we give offense we don't intend while trying to be funny or profound, or we otherwise lose our rhetorical way.If we're lucky, we have an editor who saves us. Mohammad Sagha wasn't.

He represents the typical dumb america kid, they think they know everything yet cannot find their state capital. He can find a job at the dailykos among his equally dismall buddies oh and here on Digg as well.

Who cares what a 17 year old thinks? This kid is 100 % wrong, but I understand why he wrote what he did. There is something about the ages of 17-25 that makes you think that you know everything. Most kids that age have never supported themselves, but they are more than willing to tell everyone how they should spend their money. Travel, start a career, pay taxes, have kids, then you'll appreciate how good things are in America. You will also gain a new appreciation for the Atlases of the world.
