Re: the future of the state
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] criminal behavior and poverty are caused by stupidity? [/ QUOTE ] They correlate with IQ to a pretty high degree. [/ QUOTE ] wow [/ QUOTE ] Criminal behavior certainly does, particularly here in America, and in most of the west. While there are some dumb laws, they aren't heavily or overly enforced, and generally the laws that are enforced are enforced because you're either doing something that is going to hurt you or someone around you, hence, people who participate in criminal activity are generally on the low end of the IQ scale, not that the IQ scale matters anyway. Now, poverty, that's a completely different animal. Poverty can be purely based on stupidity, on a combination of stupidity and circumstance, or purely on circumstance, so it's very difficult to say that IQ is closely related to poverty. [/ QUOTE ] not wow that there is correlation between people arrested for or involved in crime. do you really think this implies: [ QUOTE ] criminal behavior and poverty are caused by stupidity [/ QUOTE ] ??? |
