I think this is a tough issue.
There are people (quite a few, actually) with IQs below 80. In the past, they had no trouble working as field hands, ditch diggers, or even in factories.
But as time goes on, in the modern world, there is just not that much work that needs to be done by people who are not bright. I can’t possibly quantify the “useful IQ level” right now, but in 20 years, it will be higher. In 20 years more, it will be higher still.
At some point, there may be “plenty of jobs” for humans who can repair robots. But if you need an IQ of 115 to do that job, then there WILL be a lot of people who cannot contribute to society.
It’s not just a question of “is there work?” it is also a question of “can you do the work that is needed?”
I do not have an optimistic view of this.
IQ. Exactly. But the free traitor class has banished conservatives who point out how people aren’t intellectually equal. So articles like this will only tell the rose colored glasses version.
Stop subsidizing low IQ people to breed and this problem will slowly take care of itself over a few generations and you will have a better civilization without a civil war. Subsidize a permanent underclass and there will be hell t pay.
Idle hands are the Devil’s Workshop.
Just look at the inner-cities for proof.
