I think you've got it, tony. i have had this same conversation with our Kenyan salesman. He often refers to D.A.'s ( Dumb Americans). I can;t argue most of the time, because when he says it, he;s usually right. I do, however, make it a point to point out to him that there have GOT to be far more Dumb Africans per capita. I tell him that he must have been the cream of the crop over in Kenya to be able to come here and succeed. And he's a car salesman. In his defense, he's been published several times in the Kenya news ( with a little grammar help and proof reading from me) but at least he can tell the difference between a semi colon and an apostrophe.

What happens when part of Stalin's purge is getting rid of those types because they threaten the state? 4-5 generations later, can the society find and reward those kinds of people so it can become productive again?

how about an affirmative action policy for smarty pantses? you'd have to score over 135 on your IQ to qualify, and you'd get free college or something like that from the united genius college fund.
