RE: Talent and IQ ...Part 1 - The Resentment of Talent ...lets meander...

Next series of post should be about common sense, I don't have a high IQ or EI level, but I do feel I have a little bit more common sense than some people have lately displayed.

And of course it would be the land of Kings and Queens that try to subjugate their population than Non-Royalty countries.

Sort:  

IQ is only one metric of intelligence . (The only one that is actually measurable with any degree of accuracy).
I'd say common sense is a lot more valuable than any high IQ.
Emotional intelligence is the postmodernist idiocy of trying to 'level the playing field' against IQ. IQ is measurable, EI - not so much, if at all.

I'd prefer my 'commons sense level' to be increased if the cost was 10 or 15 IQ points - without shadow of a doubt.(and I'm not entirely without some of it, already).
