Dumb & Dumber

Dumbing-Down Is a Fact
New study shows that the general level of intelligence in the Western Hemisphere has declined in the last 100 years. The study refers to the adage to "respect your elders" and now there's a good reason to do so.

What this study shows is that the average IQ (intelligence quotient) has dropped by over 14 points in the last 100 years. They attribute this loss to the idea that the movement towards more "stupidity" is caused by the trend that smarter women are having fewer babies, while lower intelligent women are having more babies.

What they don't report is that over 70% of those babies being born by "lower intelligent" mothers are born into homes with only one parent. Without the benefit of two parents, this must also have a serious impact on the potential intelligence of these children, as well as having a significant cultural impact.

What the study also omits is the impact of Progressivism. The Progressive ideology tries to lower intelligence as well. Instead of teaching students how to think, they are taught to become part of the collective. This makes them more dependent on government and does not promote self-sufficiency. Instead of learning that not everyone can win, students are taught that everyone gets a trophy. Everyone becomes a "winner." This actually diminishes self-esteem and contributes to worsening the situation. This is the dumbing-down impact of Political Correctness (PC). It not only helps lower IQ but helps destroy traditional values and American culture, as well. That's the goal!

When you see the average "man in the street interview" it becomes absolutely clear that here in America, people are quite STUPID - especially on matters of Constitutional freedom, politics, government, and liberty.

Is it too late? Maybe. Will more people decide to home school their children to avoid this indoctrination? Probably not. Will Americans recognize this problem and try to fix it? It's hard to believe this when average IQs are 14 points lower. They can't even recognize that there IS a problem.

Time will tell if we are doomed.
