What countries have the smartest people on average? I know this is a touchy subject but it's true that some places on earth have people that are just more capable than others.
What causes some countries to have more intelligent people on average than other countries?
The USA has a lot of smart people but it has many people from all over the world.
thanks to the 40 million people who voted for McCain in November and the thousands who show up at the tea parties, I can safely say the USA is not on any of these lists
Yes but I think it goes deeper than just education. It must be eons of weather and diet that caused this.
You are correct. We are not talking about how much one knows which would come from education. We are talking about intelligence which is the ability to learn.
It's very simple. It's GENES! Asians, Jews, and Germans on average are the smartest people.
You are correct. There are many differences between the races and there are many differences between the various ethnic groups within each race. These differences include average intelligence. I believe the country with the highest average intelligence is South Korea.
Please don't tell me it has to do with an emphasis placed on education. I am not talking about how much one knows here. I'm talking about intelligence which is not how much one knows but rather the ability to learn.
USA! + they the most creative people...why would the whole world otherwise watch American movies, watch what the American movie stars are doing and follow them through the magazines that are sold world wide.
Patients from all over the worold come over here to get surgeries.
Students come from all over the world to study over here!
Athletes from all over the world come over here to try to make it big time and many come to be a student/athlete!

How do you make the comparison? What's the criteria?

And thanks to 50+ million brainwashed morons that voted for Obama as well, America is not doing well
As long as America shamelessly worships the 2 party system we will always be behind
Well as in complete intellectuals? I would have to say the Scandinavian countries, Switzerland, the citizens of Vienna, Britian, Germany, a great portion of France, and some other wealthy Western European Countries. Given the fact, that I've studied in three, top 25 institutions I can tell you that America definitely has a doltish Population.

Both followings definitely bring down the American IQ, but let's not kid ourselves, the right-wing following is on a league of it's own. As a matter of fact, the right definitely lacks intellectuals. And of course the few intellectuals on the right-- most of the time freshwater economist, are categorically misplaced on the political spectrum.
This question is impossible to measure accurately.
I will argue that appropriate nutrition, prenatal care, and nurturing, education parents are most vital, and it has to be done early on. Kids learn so many things better at a young age.
As soon as that first baby is conceived, parents should throw out the tv and not get a new one until the youngest is in their teens. The idiot box is a distraction and a waste of valuable time. The kid could be exercising or doing something creative, of their own inspiration. the rest of the world will pass us by while we let the tv babysit our kids so both parents can work longer hours.
