I will learn how to improperly use MP

@Methode Standard deviation 1 = 68%, 2 = 95%

So... 100 is the middle

Regardless of the semantics / meaning of what IQ

It seems, to me, that people with 85 IQ are generally functional in society

Also. I assumed you were aware of retest / correlation of IQ

You gain as much as 4-10 IQ points from a retest/studying

So that's just a working memory type issue

(Studying puts stuff into your working memory, so you can habituate to having certain habits/dispositions for academic or "intellectual" content)

So in the 70-85 range and the 115-130 range, there is about 36-37% of the population. So give or take 18% in the 70-85% range

If you just take the generalized bell curve distribution

I think the problem's of the Bell Curve / JBP / Molyneaux **are massively overstated**

Since I think you can ... legitimately train people to do just about anything... especially of low cog
Being a retail clerk isn't fucking rocket science

@Modest there's already things in place called Sin Tax

@Methode That's an amazing hypothesis

Hook up culture isn't too expensive

```There are significant differences between US and Scandinavian punitive systems. Norway’s incarceration rate is 72 per every 100,000 people compared to America’s 693 per 100,000 people. Norway also has the world’s lowest recidivism rate at 20 percent, while America sees 75 percent of its prisoners re-offend within five years of release.```

Methode actually randomly got the recidivism rate right

But the American one is ... well

4x higher
