As a person with a science degree, I went to grad school paid by a stipend, had jobs funded by grants, worked in medicine and now in non-profit, I’ve been saying this loudly. Also, my dad was a US civil servant for his entire career and my nephew is in school for meteorology. People have no idea.

Yep, they're about to find out the way you find out things in a story where you get wishes and the wishes go wrong.

Who in their alternate reality will actually connect the dots for them?

As Irish writer/musician Larry Kirwan wrote (in a different context) in 2009: Americans are "easily conned, as befits a populace that’s over-entertained and under-informed."
