Hate to bust your bubble, but without the majority of average users ("moron" as you put it), MOST of us would be without work. Yeah, telling people over and over again to do the same thing is annoying, but then again, it gives us something to do during the day while our overhead finds something else to do. More problems means more people are needed in the field. Its a cycle one is needed for the other.
