Topic: What would you do if you were in charge of your country? (Read 2380 times)

One word:

Robots.

The only things low iq people have are muscles and numbers aka cheap labour.
At the end of the day they bring nothing except that on the table.

Most works will be automated (even if strong ai wont be archieved).

The rest you are talking about is no argument it is just some whiny emotional extreme liberal leftist outcry of everyone should be equal and having same rights bla bla.
Life is not equal. Humans are not equal. Low iq people are mostly stupid welfare rats who breed without thinking.

You better stop a virus before it kills you.

High iq people have more then enough values. They are the people who change the world and history, they are the people who reshape humanity.

Well, I have to say that I agree with you partly, getting successful in life is usually determined by someone's courage, lack of fear in losing money from investment, and endurance in many stressful situations.

But I cannot agree that IQ has nothing to do with making your life successful.
It is a very important factor which can cause someone will draw correct conclusions from the losses, or business mistakes.

Learning on your mistakes is incredibly precious skill.
I have no doubt that highly intelligent people are more usually aware of their false steps after the event that might have put them in danger.

I would be engaged in the development of the economy and industry, forbade the creation of families for people who are unable to feed their children and would forbid gay marriages.

You are both partially right and on whole wrong.

Low IQ people are quite beneficial for society as it is them who form heart and muscles - that is, if they have ingrained values such as discipline and integrity.
High IQ people can be brain and backbone - again only if they have discipline, integrity and prudency.

Without values, you have only potential. And regardless of IQ or all the hard (but unfocused) work, hungry pest.

I know that, because I worked besides both degenerate, nihilistic intellectuals and in factory among relatively slow, but eager workers.

First I would take money from the budget for myself and live like a normal person, I would buy myself some sports cars, a villa on the seashore, a yacht, a personal plane ... well, and then I would take care of the people if the money remains

And then watch oligarchs and robber barons turn the country into basket case and cumdumpster for the rest of the continent.

Ukraine was there, done that.

On a side note, I would give option (life is all around options, right?) to tax payers to actually opt out of healthcare, schooling and similar public schemes, that are in most of the world mandatory. While paid for by tax payers, they are increasingly influenced by marxist ideology that seeks equal results, not equal opportunities.

Reinstating death penalty for repeated offenders in cases of murder and rape is also interesting idea. NGOs somehow managed to push "rights" of criminals and agressors before those of their victims.

Reinstate freedom of speech in full and make it untouchable in constitution. It is not just right, but basic mechanism of human society. Without it, no progress is possible at all.

That's not true because now a days every single firm needs highly qualified and creative people and the people who have high IQ level have more chances of getting into the firm they are creative. Commitment is a secondary thing because no matter how committed you are to a project you will not be succeeded until you have a strong intellectual thinking.

I read from a forum yesterday were a guy recommended "mass burial for politicians and leaders of my country" corruption hold sway in my country. There is great resources both human and mineral but our people aref living in both hunger and killing every day. If I became the president of my country? What I will do is to completely eliminate those evil past leaders and established justice, truth and implementation of human rights.

That would reduce the crime rate by quite a bit, although the human rights organizations will go ballistic at the very news of it. But you need to make sure that no innocent person is killed during your "purge".

I would execute all the prisoners with serious crime offences and put some areas of the country under martial law. It would be like Nazi Germany.

Since I am not an expert on anything I will probably destroy my country in just a few weeks with a combination of bad decisions an naivety.

1. Reform the Police Bureaucracy and make them build a faster processing mechanism even if some is moved to computers and presents a low level hacking risk mitigated by a modifiable blockchain to add/remove inputs now and then which can be converted to people.
2.Change the priority of the country from a road based system towards a High-Speed Rail system and move a portion of the tax revenue towards that aim starting by High Speeding the most used corridors.
3. Try to expand the usage area of unused land in the country by providing incentive to new development projects such as building Forestry Farms for future income and taking advantage of underpopulated sparse land to do a Willy Wonka and build developmental cities and prototypes of my creation, and let them defy explanation, eventually incorporating those city designs and models towards better urban planning projects.
(Also somewhere for all those rail beds to be built towards and utilized less urban planning issues between cities) Just connect to a test city on the master rail lines and build the lines from their to your own.
4. State regulation still three level local, province, federal with committees but to remove the bureaucracy levels a designated super-elite per level that can write in their own development plans.
5. Take all the unemployed and give them jobs of low skill building the train route, etc before transitioning gradually to higher level skills for the new economy.
6. Build 5-Year plans like the Politburo while still remaining democratic and introduce special zones.
7. Rewrite the freedom of the press a bit towards neutral viewpoints  to get government funding for TV and refer to the proper Code of Conduct for Broadcasters, while also building up more stream options for those who don't want to and prefer a certain spin.
8. Add a crowdfunding feature to government and local development projects, sometimes people want stuff and they should be able to have the opportunity to fund it with some government support and pooling of ideas (Reality ... bureaucracy hence the need for a local dictator or two XD)

Summary mix a few China and Japan influences and increase their weighting versus the current US one, while building a personal harem of course since this seems to logical needs a bit of a Dictator aspect to get development progressed.

Otherwise we end up in year long review committees analyzing the logic behind making something like a Train instead of just perfoming actions and developing.

Imagines a real world system where a train existed for 40 years between a certain route at low speeds but they kept decreasing frequency and usage because of lobbying from the road committee. Then destroyed citing low demand and usage and promised to rebuild faster but never did and just kept commissioning research committees  over the years which over the decades could have been better spent to build the system than just consider it over and over.

We need new odds for successful development than paperwork with all the bells and whistles.

Talking about you Canada 150 (^^) 150 years and nothing better than what John.A Macdonald forced the country to prevent the American's from encroaching upon that 49th parallel.

I will loot the national coffers and retire to any country with no extradition and enjoy the wealth of the nation.

All i see are low iq welfare rats who breed without stopping.
Waste of ressources 

Low iq people will never be einstein. High iq people have the chance.
Work is done by robots no need for low iq human labour.

It's actually not, religion was forbidden during the communist era so people had to hide their beliefs and when the communism failed (of course) people started practising it more and here it server as a reminder of those times when religion was forbidden but France and US were never a communist countries and didn't have to deal with that problem.

I have seen people with high IQ not being beneficial to the society, intelligence has nothing to do with success. Attaining success is all about the drive and commitment a person has in order to achieve something.

People with very high IQ do not always succeed in certain areas. I believe that IQ tests are as little related to intelligence as intellect with intelligence. It is better to raise the level of the economy, culture and education.

I believe I heard somewhere that religiosity usually go down as society become more affluent. That don't explain the Middle East and America though.
