"Psychologist Stanley Milgram found that 80% of the population do not have the psychological or moral resources to defy an authority's orders, no matter how illegitimate the order is...

Therefore only 20% have critical thinking capacity."
 
Surely, everyone understands this

"Researchers have also questioned the scientific validity of Milgram’s results. In her examination of the study, [writer Gina] Perry found that Milgram’s experimenter may have gone off script and told participants to obey many more times than the script specified. Additionally, some research suggests that participants may have figured out that the learner was not actually harmed: in interviews conducted after the study, some participants reported that they didn’t think the learner was in any real danger. This mindset is likely to have affected their behavior in the study."
