Do you think most people are sane or insane?

I dont mean insane like raving homeless lunatics preaching to the air in an ally ... I mean more like in a sort of philosophical way...

I think a lot of people are really very unhappy... I think a lot of people are tools.. I think a lot of people are extremely irrational and/or uneducated.

I'm not saying that anyone one of these things makes a person insane, but maybe a combination?

I don't know that many people, so I can't make any assumptions.

Its not about insanity, its about stupidity. When you hang around with a bunch of people with 100 IQs, you will understand what i mean.

My point is that average IQ is pretty damn stupid.

I doubt if there IS anyone that is truely SANE.

I think it's all done on a sliding scale, or at least it SHOULD be done that way.

sane is the norm, as I define it, so most people are sane.

However, the general consensus among people I know is that I am not, so you shouldn't listen to me.

...I think most people are oblivious to their sanity and are simply trying to make ends meet working 2 or more jobs 6 or 7 days a week living pay check to pay check..and their the lucky ones.. that have the education or work skill to find employment in this increasingly competitive society. NAFTA and the World Trade Agreement are going to make blue collar jobs scarce thus pressuring society to higher levels of education to qualify for work..but few of the mindless masses have the talent or means to upgrade them selves..yet we keep having ever more babies..because for most it's simply the next thing to do in their life with no thought about how that child is going to be educated..sounds crazy don't it??

Most people are perfectly sane. They just don't want to live.

I wouldn't say insane. But most people are not very intelligent.

I think a lot of people in general are ignorant of a lot that goes on, but generally happier because of it. And yes, these people are highly irrational. The most depressed individuals I know are pretty fvcking intelligent.

There is comon sense; however, I have wondered that most people don't have it. then, why it's called common sense if it's not common at all?
