The teacher said, "Let"s begin by reviewing some American History. Who said "Give me Liberty , or give me Death"?" She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Little Johnny, a bright foreign exchange student from Japan, who had his hand up: "Patrick Henry, 1775" he said.
"Very good!"
Who said, "Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth?"
Again, no response except from Little Johnny, "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."
"Excellent!" said the teacher continuing, "let's try one a bit more difficult."
Who said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country?"
Once again, Johnny's was the only hand in the air and he said, "John F. Kennedy, 1961."
The teacher snapped at the class. "Class, you should be ashamed of yourselves, Little Johnny isn't from this country and he knows more about our history than you do."
She heard a loud whisper, "Fuck the Japs."
"Who said that? I want to know right now!" she angrily demanded.
Little Johnny put his hand up, "General MacArthur, 1945."
At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke."
The teacher glares around and asks, "All right!! Now who said that?"
Again, Little Johnny says, "George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."
Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah? Suck this!"
Little Johnny jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, "Bill Clinton to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"
The teacher fainted.
As the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, "Oh shit, we're screwed!"
Little Johnny said quietly, "The American people, August 2nd, 2011."

Hallo Randy
But if the teacher had asked - who has created this and that killer game, or which label belongs to this or that brand would have determined nearly all of the correct answer.

Yep. You got that. We learn what seems interesting or seems profitable.
Did you notice the last line?
