Title: IQ
Post by: Rods2 on 16 November 2012, 22:47:44
I was reading today about the correlation of a countries average IQ and how rich they are. Which is also something to think about when it comes to mass migration to keep a countries IQ high.

So here is a list of countries. The UK is the international reference, so is always 100.

TB holiday paradise and retirement country would be Equatorial Guinea who have an average IQ of 59.  ::) ::) ::)

The official level of IQ is often quoted as having an IQ of under 70, there are other factors that come into it, but this is the general rule for adults wanting to access services through social services.... :)

randomly picking citizens from a country to measure iq will be a highly distorted picture from the real one.. and if you consider some countries have nearly half of the country outside ;D you can never measure it correctly.. it will only be a study..

...............and this goes down the road of the Nazis and their aims to select who should live in greater Germany.  Dr Mengele would be very proud of this process! :o :o :o

Not suggesting anything to do with Dr Mengele or the Nazi's, where I detest National Socialism as much as I do Communism and its ilk, where I am a libertarian, but many countries do vet immigration for the required skills, where the UK approach seems to be to accept many relations of those already here and let them claim the dole, once they have residency!

I don't have a problem with genuine asylum seekers as there are many countries with bad political systems where people are persecuted, but I do where they cherry pick where they apply for asylum passing many countries before they apply (normally the UK as benefits better and health system free) and economic migrants. With the latter it is very often, what can the country do for me, not what can I do for the country, which has kindly taken me in.
