Many people use less when they should use fewer. Less modifies the amount of something, while fewer describes the number of something. It is confusing because more is used as the obverse in both instances.

The moment that people are no longer protected from the consequences of their own stupidity, that number will be on the rise again.

He used data on average IQs around the world in 1950 and 2000 to discover that our collective intelligence has dropped by one IQ point.
***************************************************
There has been far more than one IQ point drop in average intelligence in that 50 year period. Native intelligence is largely genetically determined just as height or eye color is. This IQ drop is REAL and it’s ACCELERATING in Europe and America.

In Murphy’s Law, Book 1 there us a similar saying.

“The intelligence of the Earth is a constant. The population is growing.”

“The years passed, mankind became stupider at a frightening rate. Some had high hopes the genetic engineering would correct this trend in evolution, but sadly the greatest minds and resources where focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections.”

When the government pays dumbasses to squeeze out children as fast as they biologically can to get a bigger welfare check, then yes you can expect the average IQ to go down

Perfect timing. “Idiocracy”, set in the “early 21st century”.
