highest number I've ever seen is like 86%

Look up studies on twins separated at birth.

That should give you some indication.

those are just case studies. There's larger studies with more data that still point towards considerable influence from gentics

Of course they're going to be case studies. I don't see there being a sudden upswell in the separated-at-birth-twins-who-subsequently-participate-in-IQ-studies numbers. 😄

Nevertheless, if there's enough of them you can see some potential indications.

right I'm just saying there's no sense in looking at less conclusive data

We need a study where one kid ends up in a jewish household and the other ends up in africa lol

wew

nope

im late

but the comment about the alt right being against corbyn, isnt true

I remember reading an article from the daily stormer about them supporting corbyn

via a thread on /pol/

because he was the only one who was actually anti israel

and comments like "corbyn is /ourguy/"

Could that be ironic like when they were all like Heil PewDiePie

Well Nick Gryphon (former BNP leader before they got destroyed on question time in 2011) is quite the Corbyn supporter

Just remember that the Labour Party is full of controversial figures, when your head of equalities states that young girls need to keep their mouth shut about being raped for the sake of diversity it makes you wonder

I have a weird idea which might be really good but also has potential downsides. What if every time people had to pay taxes they could allocate them to things they felt were important? It would force the government to act like a business by becoming less wasteful (because they don’t know how much money they’d get as its dynamic) and do a better job to entice people to pay for their specific service. If part of the government isn’t doing a good job then people don’t allocate money to them and they stop that program.

isn't that essentially privatization?

It’s not privately owned so not really.

Anyways I came up with the idea because of PP funding. If people are against it they should just be allowed to not pay taxes towards it and allocate them elsewhere. If it can’t survive on public funding then it will close or need to be privately funded.

You would get excessive fund allocation to feel good expenses like lgbt parade while starving tax dollars toward boring things like roads.

Yes that is a potential downside.

Lots of people are pretty bad with money.

It could also be structured that you only get to use what you pay into.

To prevent people from wasting money on wants instead of needs.

Plus planned parenthood isn't a government institution.

If planned parenthood is to exist as an institution, it should stand on it's own.

They get taxpayer money though.

Yup.

Imagine if the NRA got a taxpayer money kickback.

And I agree. Same with sports. They should be able to survive on their own without taxpayer money.

Absolutely.

Stadiums shouldn't be allowed to filch a local government of money for a stadium

Or for an Amazon headquarters

Your allocation proposal has the problem of free riders. How do you refuse to defend people in the country from foreign powers? we're either defending the country or we're not

I don't think wealthy industrialists are going to voluntarily fund the welfare state

At best you can convince them "a rising tide lifts all boats", and its hard to make that case when your country has weak borders

A sturdy boat has shiplap walls. - _-
