I would think immigration does play a huge part here.
Not sure if this is kosher here on freepublic, but certain nationalities and ethnicities tend to score extremely low on iq tests. Somalians being a prime example.
Though, I also think the destruction of the education system might play a role, but then the Finnish results surprise me, given their educational system and very limited immigration compared to the rest of the nordics.
Finns?
It must be alcohol.
Just look at my postings since I joined over a decade ago. That’s a 20 point IQ decline right there. Age, women, rock and roll and beer.
What can a man do :P
it has been said
If you drink you’re gonna die !
If you don’t drink
you’re gonna die.
So why die thirsty !
I feel like I got smarter since I joined the FR. So many people here have enlightened me.
