I had heard this man's name before but really didn't know much about him. I've recently read up on him a little because there is a Clint Eastwood movie about him fixing to hit theaters. What is your opinion on this man?

I think he worked for the CIA or something. I could be wrong.

I've read they do delve into his cross dressing phase. Anyways, maybe some of the smarter posters can give me their opinion. I'm not trolling.

Honestly I wouldn't expect many young people to know who he was or what he did.

I don't think Billy is trolling on this one.

No doubt young people are stupid but it's not like they're being taught by intelligent people. They're not responsible for the national debt or the government potentially shutting down. That ball has been rolling for quite sometime. I don't just expect nothing from young people, I don't expect anything from anyone. Stupid is running rampant and it's not limited to a specific age group. There is a high percentage in all age groups

Walter Williams lampoons his generation ("the greatest generation").

When the great generation was born, Congress spent only three percent of the GDP. Today, as the great generation dies off, Congress spends over a quarter of the GDP. There is no constitutional authority for at least three-quarters of that spending.

I didn't necessarily mean stupid but there is more info at their fingertips than ever before. Even do it the old fashioned way if you're interested in a subject and grab a book. Hard to believe Hoover's name was never brought up in a class before they decided to make a movie about him
