One of the great myths of liberal America is that people have low intelligence because they live in poverty. The truth is, people who live in poverty tend to end up there because of subnormal intelligence.

They are poor, by and large, because they fail to develop basic intellectual and adaptive skills--like sound judgment, verbal comprehension, delay of gratification, etc, and end up unable to manage what money and assistance they do get, as a result.

The data from the NILSY reported years ago in The Bell Curve illustrate that unwed teen mothers typically have IQ's in the low to mid 80's. They didn't turn stupid because they got pregnant.. Try just the opposite.

Yes, it is also rare that a percon in a section 8 house will take care of it. There is no incentive. After all it was “free”.
