Well you've presumed wrong because this data is taken from the US Census and the census doesn't ask that question.

so the middle of the great USA is basically heroin, crack and crystal meth country? kinda stupid but looking at google maps i see nothing but farmlands and small towns. what can you actually do there?

There is nothing to do here, everything between the east coast and the Rockies is a vast expanse of farms and wilderness with the occasional tiny dystopian shithole town.

The young people spend their time doing meth and driving pickup trucks through mud for the sole purpose of having a truck covered in mud. When the rain washes the mud off, they do it again. The old women come up with ways to politely insinuate that everyone who doesn't attend all five 10:00AM Bible study classes a week is going to hell. The old men spend their days drinking in their favorite recliner, half-watching Law and Order reruns.

I always say "basically american" to the question because I don't want to be one of those assholes who lists 20 different nationalities like it makes them special. Not all of us live under the delusion that we're pure-bred or something

berkely is pretty much our nazi/hippy town and is filled to the brim with fascist/hippies. If you say you went to the university of berkely people may not hire you. It's a good school, but americans have been making fun of it since the 70's.

if someone doesnt hire you because you went to berkely you dont want to be working there anyway, because its staffed by dudes who commute to their jobs from a nixon-era political cartoon

the issue with berkely isn't how good it is, it's the reputation it built for itself. When you are so far to the left hollywood and LA makes fun of you you got problems.

What's the point of most universities when we can just use the internet to get the top people in their field to just make some lectures, and have someone make test for students to take+ homework. Just watch do the work turn it in and have a building with staff who's job is to just grade some papers. Do the same thing for high school too.

Imagine if your tiny little country was vast. Vast is a word that we use to mean full of loving nothing. Nothing for days. You, the sky, and if you're lucky a fast car going down an interstate to get you somewhere with some people. Out in that vastness, people practice the Old Ways. You get far enough into the vastness, you'll find towns that are owned by two families as have been feuding since the War, you'll find towns that have died but haven't quite stopped yet, and you'll find the Wilderness. America is really loving huge, and it'll take a while for the reality of that to sink in. Really though the trick to live in America is just not to be an rear end in a top hat. Go along to get along, all that.
