What should be done about stupid people?

[effilctar]

Easy, just cut benefits: work or starve bitches, I'm not responsible for your wellbeing. The sooner people start taking responsibility for their own lives, the better. Cutting the benefit system down to those who are physically or mentally unable to work, or supporting those actively trying to find work would be a good start.

The thing is, they can go to the job centre once a week and it would count as looking for work. They should be made to do work similar to community service until they find work so that they earn their money. get them sweeping streets and painting over graffiti'd walls

take all the stupid people to an island/ chain of islands, then leave them there and see if they can survie, then they will know hardships and understand why they shouldve gone to school, then 3 years later when we come back to check on them they either will be all dead, cannibbalistic, or have thriving cities, then they will want to come back and go to college and finish their education thus giving the colleges more money so they can pay the governments bills and then everything is happy and good. and if they are all dead... well then we got rid of a few stupid people.

And the goverment of these countries should accept... why?

Also, it's my right to be as stupid and lazy as I want. Jesus Christ, the elitism is fuckin' rampant on this site.

Exactly what I was going to say. I can't believe someone would even consider that to be a solution.

Mandatory sterilization. Natural selection in the intellectual age should still function. You don't make the cut, your genes get flushed out of the pool.

This is the best idea.
Though I think all people should be sterilized at birth and then when they come of age they are eligable to take server tests, undergo a financial audit and a psych eval. They if those are all passed you are allowed to breed.

I thought the thing about the JobCentre was that they organised interviews and stuff for you? If not then they should do, and if you don't go you get instantly cut off.

Just a note, I'm not getting on at students who don't work, because they are in education and planning to make something of themselves

 

[Smack-Ferret]

I think they should be raised liked the youth in Asia. Heh heh ha.

These ideas of sterilisation are bordering on the fascist slightly aren't they? Not that I disagree with you.

No. We don't want to breed them. If your child is stupid, would you want him breeding with YOUR family name? I don't think so...

The Nazis also sterilised those with genetic defects using radiation i believe.

Oh my, how very judgemental... says the nine year old klan school leaver who is now an author.

I dunno...tell 'em to go read a book. It won't work, but you'll feel really good about yourself for about a minute and a half.

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

I say stupidity should have a law against it. I hate people like that

We're more civilized... we'll use a sharp rock and a stick.

More like two bricks and no anaesthetic. Seriously though, I'm starting to feel that eugenics may be the only real way to save our species from itself.

I can't believe people even consider this to be an option.

First of all, genes don't automatically determine if someone is smart or stupid. The education they receive usually has larger impact on their intelligence. Secondly, how the hell do you determine who has to be sterilized? Third, sterilization isn't something you can reverse. If someone you sterilized turns their life around and becomes a productive member of society they will still lack the ability to reproduce. Fourth, you never want to limit genetic diversity.

Well-fare case and high-school drop out right here.

My dad was a high-school drop it,
but that did not stop him from becoming
a CEO of a well off corporation.

People should not be judged on
intelligences as much as they should
be judged on productivity.

 

[The White Light]

create a perfect civilization where everyone is born smart, and if they arent, they are ground up and used as meat.

We could call it Fallout: New Boise.
