"The logical conclusion to this trend was predicted ages ago in the short story, "The Marching Morons"" I beat you to the punch on this one. I am convinced that Kornbluth had longnshort in mind when he wrote the story...

How could they miss the fact that higher intelligence and education ALSO correlate directly with smaller family sizes? The logical conclusion to this trend was predicted ages ago in the short story, "The Marching Morons" en.wikipedia.org If I recall the story correctly, it even postulated a Bush-like leader (of the morons)! Now that's disturbing......you and CJ come up with the same story???

RE: "How could they miss the fact that higher intelligence and education ALSO correlate directly with smaller family sizes? The logical conclusion to this trend was predicted ages ago in the short story, "The Marching Morons" From your link: "explains The Problem of Population: due to a combination of intelligent people prudently not having children and excessive breeding by lesser intelligent people, the world is full of morons" -------------------------------------------------------- How scary.
