Considering that 30% of the American public can't point the direction "North" on a map... and that;
Only 1 in 7 Americans can identify Iraq or Afghanistan on a map.
51% of Americans know where New York is.
29% of Americans can't point to the Pacific Ocean on a map.
25% of Americans don't know from which country we gained our independence.
30% of Americans don't know what the Holocaust was.
I say that roughly 30% of the public don't know enough to care, obviously.
Another 30% are educated, but oblivious to the world around them. They would donate again to the Clinton Foundation or the Red Cross if asked, even though presented with the evidence.
The last 40% may be outraged, but at least half of us already KNOW or at least suspect. The world still keeps spinning though.
Don't over-estimate what will "shock" the American public.
You may be "shocked" to learn that more people are interested that the "McRib is back!!!" or who is "performing 1/2 time at the Superbowl" rather than what criminal corporations and government are doing.

Gave a guy a Bic lighter once and said make a campfire. He couldn't make a fire. I was stunned.
Kek

Lighter gets too hot to hold.
Pinecone still not on fire.
