Isn't your quarrel with democracy, then? Or with the universe of legal voters? Caplan's comparative advantage argument--that in a society of Einsteins, you'll have Einsteins scrubbing the floor, etc.--is legitimate, isn't it?

And, as he implies elsewhere in the post you link, where do you draw the line? I hope I get to be one of the smart ones, and that you do too...

As Winthorp puts it in Trading Places: "And he was wearing my Harvard tie! Like, 'Oh, sure! *He* went to *Harvard.*'"

LMFAO! Good cross-threading/cross wbsite synergy.

Every once in a while WWTDD makes me snort coffee thrugh my nose, and the Lohan thing was one example.

The guy commenting on Lindsay Lohan is just a retard himself. The only ones who care about a walking bad example like her are people pathetic enough to need someone they can feel superior to. Attacking her parents like that is tacky. I'll bet the commentator would never have the guts to attack any underclass non-white person by saying they shouldn't have children by implying they have something genetically wrong with them.
Why do I know all about these celebrities I'd rather not know about? It must be through osmosis, the media putting all this before our faces twenty-four hours a day.

"What did stupid people ever do to you?"

'Stupid' is the word for someone who has never seriously posed himself this very question. I know I'm not the only one who saved Kylie's incisive comment a few threads down, but does this ever bear repeating:

'The notion that their hardworking neighbors are paying the taxes that provide the government services to which they think they are entitled is literally one they can't comprehend. The government has the money, the government should provide.'

That, Mr. Caplan, is what stupid people are doing to you.

Is he unfamiliar with the smashing success of Britain's Dysgenic Welfare Breeding Program, put in place in the 1960s (on indigenous English) and whose jaw-dropping effects have been well-chronicled by Charles Murray?

Any population will have an intelligence bell-curve. Claiming that the relative numbers of people on each side of it doesn't matter to society is pure folly.

I may come to ISteve for the IQ and race postings, but I stay for the 1.) commentariat 2.) sports talk and 3.) WWTDD references.

Well done Steve - not just on this post, but on the last three months (+). The content has been superb.

"Professor Caplan's previous book was entitled The Myth of the Rational Voter: Why Democracies Choose Bad Policies, so I think he may have already answered his own question."

But smart high-IQ people voted for Obama in huge numbers.

"It’s kind of sad. Maybe [Lindsay Lohan] could have been more than she is, but she was born to two white trash retards and this is what you get."

But then... look at Paris Hilton and the young George W. Bush.

You put me in the disconcerting position of being glad that readers--or at least one reader--of the celeb trash site, WWTDD, chose to have kids.

Well I don't know if they are the usual commenters over there, or just an invasion of Sailerites, but the comments to that Caplan's PC-make-you-stupid post are very comforting.

Keep it going! Truth will prevail.

the guy who writes WWTDD is obsessed with lindsay lohan. not sure if you were aware, but you should take note. he does at least correctly point out that she enjoys preposterously lenient law enforcement due to her fame, as any normal person would have spent several years in prison by now.

by the way, from the "Where does all this stuff come from? It doesn't just fall out of the sky" files.

http://www.greenwichtime.com/local/article/Hubert-Schlafly-Teleprompter-inventor-and-1348940.php

developed the teleprompter (perhaps obama should eulogize him?), pioneered satellite television, was an all around inventor and problem solver in the industry and is responsible for lots of stuff that just didn't exist before he created it.

Steve I sometimes think that you are America's last conservative and although I cannot bring myself to being a conservative it often seems that conservatives are always right.

whoa. HOLY SHIT. barack obama, finally, after 3 years, released a document that is required of absolutely every other candidate way up front in the nomination process.

note how low the the standards are for this obama guy because he is half african. he gets huge credit and props from his fans for doing something that is positively standard and trivial.

next up, kemba walker wows people with his admission that he has actually read one, single book, after 12 years of public school and 3 years of "college". damn, that guy sure is an all-arounder, what an accomplished young man. lol. should have been forced to play in the NBDL like half of these NCAA players.

It would be funny if after making such a big deal out of unveiling the birth certificate it did in fact say he was born in Kenya.

Brendan's comments on Glanville bring to mind a warning I once heard: No matter how good looking she is, someone somewhere is sick of her sh!t. If that woman has to move by her self, she must have really burned a whole lot of bridges.

One thing that makes English movies and television so fine is that English show folk, although even more lefty than ours, are smart enough to rapidly and skillfully adapt so many pieces of basically conservative literature that have important ideas, interesting stories or other story-telling values.

The great example of this is the works of Evelyn Waugh. His religion and politics repelled the English artistic community. But English film-makers could not keep their hands away his novels, turning almost all of them into very good productions, in many cases several times.

Of course, this might also be explained on the theory that, whatever their philosophical differences, British show folk are, like Waugh was, snobs about esthetics.

I'm almost afraid to ask, Jody, but how do you know what is required of 'absolutely every other candidte way in front of the nomination process.'?

I can't every remember any other presidential candidate releasing his birth certificate. Do you have some polaroids somewhere of Lyndon Johnson and Harry Truman showing theirs to a judge?

Yeah, except that John McCain fella who had to show his birth certificate to the Senate in order for them to adopt a nonbinding resolution declaring him a citizen.

oops!

"damn, that guy sure is an all-arounder, what an accomplished young man."

He's not going to make millions of dollars next year being 'an all-arounder' and an 'accomplished young man.' He's going to get paid to do one thing very well. Play basketball. He managed to graduate in a very insignificant supplementary sidelight to his career, in three years. Can you say that?

Oh, McCain did? Great, he was never president.


I don't remember Clinton or Bush doing it, and I don't know that Obama didn't.

Is this true? Dina and Michael don't strike me as blue bloods but I'm not sure there is anything to indicate that they are white trash. After all, how many people who face insider trading charges are white trash?

Speaking of bashing Jews, did anyone see the overbearing Steve Roberts (with his admittedly charming wife Cokie) brow-beating a group of religious leaders last Sunday on ABC's This Week with Christiane Amanpour? The topic was civility in discourse and apparently Steve felt empowered to insult and lecture everone that wasn't for burdening future generations with debt or allowing illegal aliens to become full citizens at their personal discretion.
