Per the Minnesota drivers manual:

http://www.dps.state.mn.us/dvs/DLTra...lassDFinal.pdf

Passing
Improper passing causes many crashes. Use extra caution when passing
at night, when visibility is poor, and when the road is slippery.
In locations where passing is permitted on two-lane roads with traffic
moving in both directions, you may pass on the left side of vehicles
ahead of you. You should not exceed the speed limit to complete a pass.
However, the speed limit on two-lane highways with a posted speed limit
of 55 mph or higher is increased by 10 mph when the driver is lawfully
passing another vehicle in the same direction. When you are preparing
to pass, you must make sure there is a safe distance between your vehicle
and oncoming traffic. You must also look behind you to determine
whether other drivers are preparing to pass you. When another driver
is trying to pass you, stay in your own lane and do not increase speed.
Use your left turn signal before moving into the left lane to pass.
Use your right turn signal after passing and before returning to the
right lane. Return to the right lane when you can see the entire vehicle
you have just passed in your rearview mirror.
When passing another
vehicle, you must return to the right side of the road before coming
within 100 feet of an oncoming vehicle.
Do not attempt to pass another vehicle in locations where a “No
Passing Zone” sign is posted or where there is a solid yellow line on
your side of the center line. Double solid yellow lines mean passing
is not allowed by vehicles traveling in either direction.
Do not pass:
• On a curve or hill where you cannot clearly see the road ahead
for at least 700 feet.
• Within 100 feet of an intersection, underpass, tunnel, or railroad
crossing.
• When you are about to meet a vehicle coming toward you from
the opposite direction.

That pretty much tells me that slow people are supposed to stay the f*ck out of the far left lane.

EVEN IF 'you shouldn't be speeding anyway' - well, that's not your job to tell us what to do. Stay the hell out of our way, and stop thinking it's funny to be an a-hole by keeping your slow asses in the far left lane.
