Don't you think it kind of works in the favor of this political system to maintain an ignorant population?
I mean, cutting education funds (whcih are horrible to begin with), and keeping superficial garbage on the TV 24/7 means that more and more people becoming dumberer and dumberer, and then the powers that be can pretty much do as they like and still have 45% of the populaton support them, and even cheer them on.

An IQ test isn't simply reading and writing though...There are a lot of places that will read the questions to you and then write down your answers if you have a reading disability (my younger brother is dsylexic).Originally Posted by princesskittypoo

Currently we have a little law that requires children to go to school through age 16. Even though their parents might be illiterate and have had little schooling, their children are subject to different laws and rules that simply don't allow them to become like their parents and grandparents.
As for measuring 'stupidity', on an IQ test, there is certain ranges that will tell you which category you fall into.
I'm sure that its not called stupid, but its more like mentally challenged or something...
FYI, my college requires IQ tests when you enter and exit and when I entered, I was borderline genius, believe it or not!
I don't find the I.Q. tests very valuable. Case in point: I got a 155 the last time I took one. If I can score high it can't be worth much.
i scored 140 and i know i shouldn't have!
i didn't know there were different laws for people to not be like their parents (what s.s. said earlier and i can't say correctly now)
