Humans are Becoming Genetically Less Intelligent

[eagle]

WHile I agree people of less intelligence are having more kids and therefor there are more people of less intelligence as a whole I feel the deliine of "civilization" is being hastened by the few in power. The greeedy elite suck the life out of us for cheap labor and suck the earth for fuel with small regards for the population of "less intelligent ones" Long before civiluzation will decline from poor breeding habits we will be destroyed by the greed of a few who just serve the machine of government and industry.

Most of us work for someone else. That is, someone who is one of the greedy elite who gives us a job. If that greedy elite did not exist, most of us would not have jobs. Maybe you are jealous of their success, power, wealth and intelligence; but because of those things, most of you have a job.

It is not a sin to be rich; it is not a sin to work hard; it is not a sin to start a business, risk all that you have, and hire a lot of people to work for you. It is because of people like that, that many others are able to pay rent and put food on the table.

Now, if you want to stand by your ideals, then start your own business and hire a lot of people at what you believe to be a fair wage, and see how well you do.

Don't misunderstand me, I am not pro-greed; but I am not so stupid as to be anti-wealth either--that is usually just a thin veneer of jealousy to mask the fact that you aren't very successful yourself.

So who said rich people are bad man not me, but poor dum people don't manipulate the economy of ours and other countries so they can make profits. I have a great Job and I'm not so STUPID as to not like rich people. But its wealthy who have the power to make things better. I'm very successful and have traveled the world playing music with a grammy winning flutist along with other successful buisnesses I have had so chil with your condescending remarks like I'm jeaous man.

Although the populations of civilizations grow so that it cause problems seems the greedy overlords failure to manage them has as much to do with there failure.

It is said that the most intelligent people are often among the most unhappy people.

Thank goodness I'm dumb.

less intelligent = more happy? :shock:

does this mean humans are getting happier?

interesting... must be the water :roll:

This is not mathematics.

The most intelligent people are often unhappy; Doesn't necessarily mean that less intelligent = more happy. The least intelligent people are probably among the least happy as well.

It is based on the premise that the more knowledge one have, the more cynical and disllusoned one becomes about life.

A study a few years back concluded that the Nigerians were the happiest people on earth. Happiness does not necessarily increase with wealth, education and other western measures of advancement.

Happiness is related to one's expectations.
