The Collapse of the United States

[Shockm]

This actually is about the collapse of 8 liberal states who have huge public pension programs and they can’t pay their state bills. Their solution is to unveil state wealth taxes. All the while people are leaving their states. The 8 states are California, Washington, Minnesota, Illinois, New York, Maryland, and Connecticut (Hawaii too). They are threatening to yearly assess each citizens wealth holding (all that they own), and tax them on their accumulative wealth and holdings.

Of course, the solution is to move out of state, but California is threatening to chase after this tax money even after a person leaves the state. Good Luck.

Is It Any Wonder? America's Average IQ Declines for First Time in Nearly 100 Years

As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, the study, published in the psychology journal Intelligence, Analyzed the time period between 2006 and 2018. Unsurprisingly, the study’s authors noted that the greatest decline in IQ occurred among Americans between the ages of 18 and 22, and “may” be due to poor quality education. I know — try to control your shock and amazement.

According to the report, the findings could indicate “that either the caliber of education has decreased across this study’s sample and/or that there has been a shift in the perceived value of certain cognitive skills,” according to the report.

Idiocracy is real.

Im sure that if we just sent more money to the dems through..... errrr funded education ie teachers unions, we will see that IQ number rise exponentially.

Also, if we added a hundred points per woke tendency.

IQ should not be based on education. I feel like something is missing in this report.

From 2006 thru 2018, you say?

Among 18-22 year olds, you say?

Cell phone usage has to be a major contributor also. Not sure there's much educational value in TikTok. My daughter is on her phone throughout the school day as are many of the teachers.

Unrelated to the above posts but relevant to the overall thread, my wife's coworker quit her job as a nurse at a Wichita public school because she was told she'd be in charge of cleaning up the litter boxes in the school bathroom. There are no cats in the school, just kids who identify as such.

Perhaps, it is relevant. I would say that this may point to diminishing IQ.

This is a joke, right? Right? I know things are really jacked up, but are they this jacked up?

True story in LA as well.

I heard from a local that it has happened in Newton as well. Crazy Town? The Governor vetoed the Kansas Transgender bill, but I don't know if they allow Cats to compete in athletic events, and it's not clear which bathroom/locker room they use.

So....

If someone identifies as a dog do they get let outside and get taken for a walk to **** in the playground?
