Neanderthals were more intelligent than the knuckledraggers walking around now with their “smart” phone stuck to the side of their head.

100 years ago natural selection was still operational.
Now anybody who breathes can get government to pay for their food, shelter and clothing, so everybody procreates!
Matter of fact, the more helpless you are, the more you procreate.

Oooh! Oooh! Pick me! I'm a cook. I know how to part out a chicken.
I think the good perfesser's conclusions as presented are absolutely meaningless.
I would say that the bell curve has a dip in the center, but there are plenty of smart and capable folks around.

It is because fat, drank and lazy has an upper hand, not just a chance to get through right now.

Natural selection is still operational today.
When we don't have a drought, deer population explodes. When a drought hits, they drop like flies.
Right now, there is plenty of government rain falling. If it stops, liberals and takers will die off in a horrific mess.

Um... maybe because Western civilization is no longer only filled with Westerners?
If white westerners score higher on IQ tests (which is generally the case *please no cries of racism*), wouldn't it stand to reason that as the western countries open the floodgates of immigration to non westerners that the average IQ would drop?
It seems to me that if they wanted to test against the historical norm they should have only tested white westerners, otherwise they are only re-discovering what is already known that for whatever reasons whites do better on IQ tests.

Being a genealogist, I review a lot of writing and notes from people in the 1700's and 1800's, including some of my own ancestors.
I can't say whether vocabulary equates to IQ, but folks 100-200 years ago wrote (spoke?) much more eloquently and intelligently than today.
