Maybe it has little to do with IQ, but a lot to do with opportunity and the resources available to those who might have the talent to succeed.

Telling them to have fewer children doesn’t seem to solve anything. Gates needs to put his money where his mouth is, and support these people instead of criticizing them and their culture.

His many Billions of dollars have been spent over the decades trying to create opportunities for Blacks?

How many success stories do you have? Damn few.

How many STEM students are Black? Damn few.

Liberals love to believe we are all created equal. Nature, nor God, every does anything g equally. Some horses are faster than others. Some dogs are smarter than others; and some humans are not gifted with intellect.

To say they are, and ignore the facts is simply magical thinking.

Unfortunately, this has a lot to do with IQ. Low IQ is directly associated with a whole host of social problems.

In an increasingly technological world requiring more intelligence those a standard deviation below the mean are in trouble no matter the “solutions” to low-IQ related problems.

The Bell Curve caused an uproar when was published. The authors were respected members of the academic community and hated to reveal the problem of IQ distributions. But they had hundreds of studies on the issue to verify their conclusions.
