Innervoice is an idiot with a one way agenda. d08... You often sound like an intelligent person. Do you belong to a colonizer's family and need to find excuses for what your relative did a couple a generations ago? Thinking that colonization was any good for anyone but the colonizers, is beyond idiocy. Shall we accept Russia move in Ukraine because it's just what humans do?
you just went full eugenics, you never go full eugenics. lolwut, those high IQ democratically elected Norwegians and Mexicans must've figured something out if nationalizing their oil industry did not lead to their country's collapse.
You certainly have no reason to and nor do I. Those who contributed the least to civilization sonehow think they are owed some sort of apology.
for them. And BTW what was the average IQ of Europeans 200, 300 or so years ago. No doubt just like elsewhere around the world including current day in some parts, top, middle and bottom percentiles. Absolutely nothing to do with political or educational systems, but whether or not one applies themselves and of course an economic system that allows them to put their intelligence to use.
IQ scores drift upwards everywhere. But the hierarchy remains. Industrial era seemed to bump numbers higher quite a lot but nowadays, with only a few exceptions, everyone is in the industrial era.
Mexican oil fields are actually quite badly managed. Norwegian population has high IQ, read what I wrote again.
One just has to look at who were the most successful countries/ people the past 400 years and who was not. More than likely those who were not successful still arent today. The fact remains, some people rely heavily on European innovation as well as American inmovation. Quite frankly, certain countries and cultures just cannot survive without Europeans or America influence. One needs to look no further than Haiti or Africa.
