Why don't the "intelligent" people just have more children, instead of less children than previous year trends?
Are they too self consumed? What's causing family size to shrink in this group, do you think? I'm not certain?

I was going to start a thread on this
IQ scores in the US are on the wane for the first time ever — and experts are saying that technology is to blame.
A report from 2023 revealed the depressing reality — that the average intelligence test score fell from 100 to 98, a dismal, two point decline after a previously uninterrupted 30 point rise that began in 1905.
Test-takers are quizzed on matters of logic, spatial reasoning, visual and mathematical problem-solving and vocabulary. Scores have only been tracked since the beginning of the 20th century.
Now, experts theorize that the problem dates back to the millennium, when Americans began relying more heavily on tech in their daily lives — a reliance that has only grown.
“I do suspect that increased technology use could be playing a role in impacting our nation’s overall literacy levels,” Dr. Stefan Dombrowski, a psychology professor at Rider University, told the Daily Mail.
“It is well known that people who read and write more, generally score higher on IQ tests — of course, this is a chicken/egg scenario,” he explained.
“Do these individuals engage in reading and writing activities more frequently because they are brighter, or do they become brighter…on IQ tests because they read more?”

Virginia is coming in at 11th (101.2) and tied with five other states.....I'll take it.
The movie Idiocracy was not supposed to be a factual prediction.
Intelligent people don't want to have children meanwhile we allow low IQ people to flood into our country from third world shitholes and the first thing we do is give them a smartphone.
Add to that we have supported lazy (and low IQ) people for generations that choose not to work with SNAP and EBT encouraging them to have more children.

You saw Louisiana wants the 10 commandments posted in every classroom? How about you scored 49 out of 50 for the dumbest states. Focus on education not the BibleNegative....People are so stupid now they can't even properly form a question to ask their smartphone for an answer.

That and other things as well.

As in 100% correct. Not 100% the cause. Have you been relying too much on tech?So then not 100%
And reality TV. And podcasts. We get our covid facts from Bill Maher and our news from The Daily Show.A dumbed down generation raised with smart phones.
