The Average IQ of Los Angeles is Droppping (Davis: work, health care)

[James T]

Excerpts from an article posted at American Patrol:

There is more bad news for us, Americans, in that story. As Mexico's national IQ is about 87 (see [7], table 6.1), and judging from the past experience, we don't even get average intelligent Mexicans with the current wave of mass "migration", the U.S. national average IQ of about 98 (see [7], table 6.1) will continue to decline because (according to [8], p. 298) IQ is very highly inheritable. This phenomenon is known under the name of dysgenic fertility (see [8], pages 348-357, and [9]) and it takes place when segments of population with below average IQ (e.g., U.S. population of Mexican ancestry, see [8], pages 341 and 360-361) exhibit above average fertility. As a result, the average productivity will drop, as will average workers' skills. The high school dropout rate will increase, though, unless academic standards are further watered-down. Health care costs are likely to soar as low IQ has a strong statistical correlation with person's unhealthy lifestyle and a lack of self-care. For instance, prevailing obesity that disproportionately targets residents with below average IQ, will add tens thousands of dollars of a bypass surgery cost to the statistical insured. For similar reasons, crime rates should be expected to grow as criminal activity is strongly correlated with low IQ (see [8] for more details).

And I haven't even mentioned any of the negative effects of overpopulation under the circumstances of shrinking reserves of natural resources, like land, water, fresh air, and oil, just to name a few.

All the above seem certain like that 2 + 2 = 4. Unless, of course, our Federal government gets serious about enforcing the American border and the immigration laws. But don't expect that to happen any time soon as our corporate elites, out of concern about region's "stability", corporate profits, and Army recruitment, will vigorously push whoever occupies the White House to not obstruct the free flow of people through our Southern border.

I particularly love the racial undertones of the quoted text. It almost seemed as if the author took existing issues, or those widely known to be issues in the near future, and tried very courageously to place the Mexican immigrant population at the center of it. I guess if that had been the author's intent, he must have erroneously missed the fact that perhaps Mexico's national IQ is proportionately lower because public education is not typically funded past the elementary school level, whereas in most US' states, it is funded through the high school level.

What's it like being a high school graduate competing against a fifth grader? You must feel mighty smart, especially because you're not Mexican!

Even I'm offended by that. What's next--"studies" from Stormfront?

That's just sad.

"Droppping?" Enough said!

I guess those commenting have not see the fact that less than 50% of Mexican Americans graduate from high school... We are going to run out of fast food places for all them to work...

No education = crime, unwed mothers and gang bangers...

Go back to Mexico and pollute your country, stay out of ours...

The logic of this article might apply more aptly to natives of places like Texas, where they use a cow's tongue for toilet paper. If I'm not mistaken, Texas has some of the lowest education stats, and I don't think it's due to the influx of Mexican people. Post this in one of their forums, but watch out, they'll start spitting tacks and call you names (only because deep inside they know that what you are saying is true, bless their hearts). It's kind of fun.

Well, you just found a Texan.

You think Texas is bad? What about Louisiana? What about declining Rust Belt areas?

Look at this article: http://www.city-journal.org/html/16_2_houston.html

"Stasia Marie Davis, who evacuated from New Orleans East and was about to start work as a teacher’s aide when I spoke to her, says that her two high school–age daughters had been in gifted programs at a New Orleans public school but “are struggling to keep up” at Houston’s Westfield High School. “In New Orleans, they are preparing them for the tourism business. Here, they are preparing them for college,” she told me."

Go on a Houston forum and ask about Westfield, and people say Westfield is a ghetto school. What does this say about New Orleans education?

And perhaps the reason 50% of Mexican-Americans don't graduate is because they may not speak English nor is there a great emphasis on ESL courses in LAUSD. You could probably thank Mayor Villaraigosa for that one. You may have forgotten about the statistic concerning the pregnancy rates of young African-Americans and, in many parts of the country, their declining graduation rates. I'd say that hardly pertains to illegal-immigration, no?

There is quite a difference between being anti-illegal immigration and being racist. You, my friend, walk the thin line between the two.

ESL has to have a presence in this scenario. A school district, by law, must educate any children in an area that do not have private or home school arrangements. It doesn't matter if the kids do not speak English.
