corellations of intellegence
I would like to figure out what benefits intelligent people have over others. Basically I would like to draw correlations based on level of intellegence.
Personally I think 80% of the population is dumb. I guess that would mean that 20% are smart with lognormal distribution. I guess one could argue that 50% are dumb and 50% are smart.
I also feel that dumb people cost way more than what they produce and are to some extent really bringing at least the US down ... and I am sure other countries.
I would like to see the following things with correlations on intellegence:
teenage pregnancy
hard drug use
gang membership
family abuse
child abuse
assult
pop music
Now I know that some of these things are from poverty ... so I think that is hard to factor out. I agree that these things may be higher for poor people and I can understand that. But I am more interested in drawing the lines to see if intellegence comes into play.
