I hope when the Chinese are the dominant empire on the planet they don't have this same mindset cause your ilk will be in trouble . no empire lasts forever my friend. If you think you and your offspring can compete academically with an Indian , pakastani , Chinese, Korean, Japanese, west Indian or African immigrant you are in big trouble . they obliterate test scores and academics and engineering and medicine . I went to my sisters graduation in Frostburg MD ( about as American and nondiverse as you can get) and every award was given to a minority. I never saw so many west Africans dancing on stage as they receive their diploma. Your old school attitude will blind you from the takeover that is about to happen . traditional America just can't compete. Care to argue those stats my friend?
It is incredibly arrogant to assume that you and your race/ethnic group are significantly more intelligent than other races/ethnic groups. But that is exactly what you have explicitly stated.
I didn't make any such claim in this thread, but now I will. It is scientific fact that European Americans have higher average IQ (103) than most every other group besides E Asians. https://iq-research.org/en/page/average-iq-by-country
I don't doubt that to be the case. Of course, career choices were not as broad as they are today, but women had much more support from other women then they do today. Women are more competitive and judgmental of women's decisions whether they stay home and raise a family or focus more on their career than family and all women suffer from guilt of having to choose BOTH and fully succeed at neither.
Today's woman has a higher risk of heart attack, alcoholism, depression and autoimmune disorders as a result of work related stress. We've come a long way baby!
And yet, women's life expectancy in the United States has improved from 71 in 1950 to 81 in 2015.
The fifties were a decent time for the middle class. My parents as children of poor/working class immigrants did fine. If they were starting out now, it would be more difficult for them.
Small world . I loved it down there. I'm an honorary mountain man. Lol. Big culture shock for me when I wold go and visit with my new York ways. Its cool being a big shot for a couple days with NY money. Lol. The young guys in camo suits with gunracks on the pickup trucks made me nervous.... I will admit it. But they were super friendly. Maybe when I retire I will head down to MD.

Funny how that works . Europeans made the test. How well would Americans do on an Asian IQ test. ??? Prob not very well

That is a listing by COUNTRY. It says nothing about European Americans.
