There are no jobs for those with an IQ of less than 87

Is that why unemployment is so low in Somalia?
No, because there are no employment opportunities, industries are very low and limited.

@OP, these studies are flawed, people place IQ numbers on entire populations because of a test conducted on a select few. Most human minds have the capability of reaching high levels of intelligence if they're nurtured and exposed to the right type of education.

Just because some are unfortunate to have no education, doesn't mean they're doomed to be idiots.

But this means even if there are opportunities people are not smart enough for the position. Is that why there are many Kenyans and others in Mogadishu? All websites tell me average IQ is 68 which means borderline mental disability.

IQ is BS when it comes to individuals. It is somewhat useful when it comes to population means, but with individuals one can score 20 points difference depending on mood/alertness etc.

But this means even if there are opportunities people are not smart enough for the position. Is that why there are many Kenyans and others in Mogadishu? All websites tell me average IQ is 68 which means borderline mental disability.

That figure is derived from malnourished Ethiopians and Kenyans. They have never tested Somalis so far.

If malnurished Ethio/Kenyans have an IQ as low 68, I don't even want to think about what stateless, anarchic, famine-ridden Somalia must be.:mjlol:

Welfare states are dysgenic, enabling more dummies to survive.

The famines of the 80, 90, and 00s, must have weeded out a lot of dummies.
 
SO when i become the worlds best technological innovator i will basically have a very large IQ ..... makes sense.

Btw IQ CAN change just saying ... people in somalia don't have the same opportunity /access to good education then people here DO NOT compare .
u have the potential I can see it inn u :yousmart:

I don't get you. One minute you're a socialist, next you're riling on them for supporting "dummies".

I'm an anarcho-capitalist when it comes to Somalia. Laissez-faire all the way.

For the West, there are ''tactical'' reasons why I am not one. white genocide, global government.
 
So you believe progressive socialist policies are detrimental to a country. Even though it's been proven that laissez-faire, Neo-liberal, freemarket capitalism doesn't help economic prosperity and sometimes even reduces a country's GDP growth rate?
