Word: nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people Part of Speech: proverb Etymology: Widely attributed to American author and social critic H. L. Mencken (1880–1956) but not found verbatim in his published works, so the source and original form of this expression are not known with certainty. Likely a nearly verbatim paraphrase of: "No one in this world, so far as I know ... has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people" which is attributed to Mencken. One possible origin of the reference specifically to Americans is the essay by Nora Ephron originally titled, If You're a Little Mouseburger, Come With Me. I was a Mouseburger And I Will Help You. (1970) In the essay, Ephron refers to "the old Mencken dictum that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." The piece was reprinted in Ephron's collection Wallflower at the Orgy. (1970) 1. Americans, as a group, are not especially intelligent and can be readily entertained or fooled to produce a financial benefit for someone. Example: Ed Wood was a backwards genius, he set out to make horror movies and he didn’t know how to do it. . . . Mencken said, “Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.” Well, Ed Wood did go broke by underestimating their intelligence. Example: H. L. Mencken may have noted that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people, but not even he could have anticipated this. Like Bill and Ted, their principal rivals among screen duos who play dumb, Wayne and Garth do their best to elevate stupidity to an art form.

Word: nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American people Part of Speech: proverb Etymology: Widely attributed to American author and social critic H. L. Mencken (1880–1956) but not found in his published works, so the source and original form of this expression are not known with certainty. 1. Americans, as a group, do not have good taste or sophistication and can be easily amused or distracted to produce financial benefit for someone. Example: “I remembered that nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public, so I set out to write the worst novel it was humanly possible to write and still get published,” he said.

Gibson on the elevation of the inversion temperature of quartz with increased pressure, and the discovery by V.B.

[…] Accompanied by several ministers and provincial leaders, Mr. Carney wants to seal agreements to sell more oil, gas, and other natural resources abundant in Canada, secure investments and finalize defense deals with key Indo-Pacific countries.
