    whatsup, you are a borderline idiot.

    whatsup said: "So they want to give the "uncreative" people the creativity? Why not boost the people who are already creative? "

    Because the uncreative drones are a problem, for society, for the economy, for our politics, and for our personal well-being.

    whatsup said: "Do numbers, facts and figures inspire or even teach you to be more creative?"

    Yes, they absolutely can. Creativity can come from anywhere. The most useful creative solutions actually address those facts, figures, and numbers. They improve our lives in real ways.

    whatsup said: "In fact, I believe it's been on a rise ever since man drew on walls."

    You have no proof of this. This is purely your guess, and probably based on some idea of technical mastery, rather than any true notion of creativity.

    whatsup said: "If I score 100 kids one year, and again in ten years on creativity, I'm bound to get different results based on the types of people. "

    No shit, that's not the point of the article nor the study. The point is to study changes in generations, not individuals.

    whatsup said: "So the facts in the article were left up for interpretation and not for inspiration so I thought it was boring."

    It's in fucking Newsweek, not the Louvre. The article isn't supposed to make you creative or "inspire" you, you fucking dolt.
