"The idea of IQ being inherited is a way for poor people to be shown their own place."

Elmo recent studies do indicate that many character straits are inherited. More recently it has been widley shown that genes play a rile in personality intelligence and several other behavioral straits. Turkheimer suggest as a "first law of behavior genetics" that all human behavioral traits are heritable.

Search for works by Bouhard TJ, Tellegen A, Segal NL, Plomin R, DEvlin R, Roeder K for example about "heritability of the IQ"

Those findings justify the notion that smart people with high income should pay more taxes to spread social justice as a the person which was born without talent, imagination or smarts is not its own fault but that of his parents who should have known better before bearing children.

It also justifies discouraging ungifted people to bear more children and make use of more contraceptives – sounds very wrong socially and politically but those are facts substantiated by recent research.

So some one that was born very smart should share his wealth with the poor - and on the other hand some one that is a charlatan or a swindler or a thief should be banned form positions of power for life as his temptation to breach the law is a inherited strait and should not be in a position that he can exercise it.
