Most educated? Yes.

Most intelligent? No.

Smart people have been shunning science and academia since the 90s. The best and brightest work on Wall Street and they do tend to have kids--their genes for intelligence do pass on.

It is very encouraging to hear that people who make dumb life choices are being prevented from reproducing their foolish genes.

Maybe in a few generations no one will be stupid enough to work for a boss that doesn't reward them, and then we will have reform.

Downvote me all you want. You can't handle the truth.

Truth nothing, that is a petty, shortsighted view. Yea, if you want to go work for some thugs in the financial industry, go ahead, get your silver. The people who sacrifice their entire adult lives furthering knowledge for the sake of humanity deserve better.
