Pseudo-Meritocracies
- CmonDev 11y agoI am glad it's about class inequality for a change. On topic: how naive do you need to be to think that any of current civilizations are meritocratic? Especially given the recent positive discrimination trends.
- TerryADavis 11y agoGod's world is perfectly just. Liberals love evolution. IQ is inherited, obviously or the smart monkey wouldn't evolve. Once meritocracy is established, it takes one generation for high IQ to go to top. Then, no class mobility because high IQ is at the top and their children are at the top.
- PaulHoule 11y agoOne problem with the meritocracy is achievement laundering. For instance if you get through Harvard you really have run the gauntlet and worked very hard, it gives you more of a feeling of entitlement.
