How can one measure "Stupid"? Are criminals stupid? Do we use an extremely flawed measure such as IQ?

Ignoring that, intelligence isn't a particularly inheritable trait. The problem isn't just stupid people having kids, it's stupid people /raising/ kids. We don't know nearly enough about genetics to determine what actually constitutes "good genes" that we want to pass on.

Uh, what?

3 and 5 show causation. This is backed up by correlation, not the other way around.

You still never stated what of the 8 points you disagreed with.

The evidence for global warming is in the first 8 points. It defends global warming throughout the rest of the article. You tagged your article as "Nope, never did", so could you explain which of those 8 points you disagree with?

I don't understand how you found that article "borderline dangerous". That sounds awfully hyperbolic to me.

Why on earth would I read an article from the 1970s about a modern scientific problem? Yeah, scientists are wrong sometimes. This was also never, to my knowledge, a "consensus" which was acted upon like global warming is. It's not a "scam".

I reject your notion that spending billions abroad is beneficial, as well as your notion that we should screw other countries.

Let's take, for example, our "selfless rebuilding efforts" in Iraq. We spend billions there and we kill more civilians than Saddam did. A strong majority of Iraqi citizens wanted us to go away.

But we can't "screw other countries." A citizen of China, Zimbabwe or Iraq is -no less important- than a citizen of the US. However our aid should not be in rogue efforts. We need to stop ignoring the UN and pay our debts to them, taking a more active role in supporting their policies and not vetoing resolutions on human rights that "violate our sovereignty" as Dr. PAul puts it.
