"I would pick the first room, but you would likely say that each room has an equal number of successful people."

if each room only had a hundred people he would probably be right. you'd probably need at least 10 times that many to see a statistically significant difference.

that there is a difference in racial IQs is a statistical fact. and the asians have a higher IQ than the whites. yet the asians have a history of brutal dictatorial regimes. so do whites, save one country. the USA. it wasn't our superior intelligence that gave us a great country. it was the drive to do the right thing in creating a government that did it. it was that drive that gave us the constitution with its checks and balances and the bill of rights. it was those things that made us great.

it is freedom, along with personal and property rights that makes us strong. it is those things that also help strengthen an economy. thank god we had the founders at the right time. we're lucky, not smart.
