Civilizations start with a few leaders who conceive the otherwise unknown notion of working together in organization, thus achieving efficiency and better lives.
Over time people take this for granted; then breeding breaks down, then ideology breaks down and moves from a transcendental "we could make things better" to a materialistic "let's divide up what we have." This leads to purely economic, utilitarian systems of government/society. From this comes further dysgenics, followed by race-mixing et cetera.
At this time, our society is bloated with parasites.
The ability to see the need to make civilization where none exists starts ~120 IQ points, but more properly in the 130-170 IQ range.
For this reason, all of our fighting over political systems is irrelevant: our true problem is a loss of higher intelligence. Our population averages are now about 103 IQ (IQ is not a perfect measurement, but close enough for demographic-statistical purposes).
I propose a society of only those 120 and higher, and the extermination of all below 120 (they will inevitably revolt, wanting what more intelligent people have and lacking the brains to see they will be killing the goose that laid the golden egg, as has happened in our society).
This society will stabilize over a generation and then have time to remove those lacking nobility of character, and to breed its ugly people into healthier-looking ones.
Thoughts?
