Half of the people are below average in intelligence
If a nation's average IQ level is already low, this is especially damaging.
Low IQ people have trouble with the following:
-Planning for the future
-Understanding the consequences of their actions
-Organizing themselves effectively
-Listening to better informed and more intelligent people
-Dealing with complexity
The only way to deal with this situation is for a high IQ elite to take control and institute a benevolent authoritarian regime to lift the low IQ people out of their misery. Usually the low IQ masses will not understand what is good for them and will resist the changes brought by the high IQ.
