I hear so many times in the States, "Well, of course we should deal with obvious problems, but if you don't see what's in front of you, you're either dumb or ignorant."
Escucho demasiadas veces en EE. UU. : "Claro que deberíamos tratar  los problemas obvios pero, si no los tienes enfrente, o eres tonto o ignorante".
