If this were true then over time humans would never have evolved to be as intellectually capable as we are. Why can we do so many things ape's can't yet have a common ancestry?
It is defiantly learned behavior how you want to make use of the capability but as plenty of people with learning difficulties would attest, if the underlying function isn't as strong as in others it makes it a whole lot harder to learn even with the motivation.

I don't think genetics has anything at all to do with that and I've never seen anything that would make me believe it does. Given that, the only negative influence such people have by breeding is the influence they wield over their children (which can be a lot, but can also be overcome).
