Smart, responsible people will always reproduce intelligently and responsibly, whereas dumb people will reproduce less responsibly. So by sheer numbers, smart people lose.

We just want people like you to think we lose. But that's obviously not the case. I don't expect you to comprehend.

Yeah, natural selection is no longer about surviving long enough to reproduce, it's about being able to make good enough money to provide for your children's education, so that they can make good enough money to pay for their children's education, and so on. The rewards for good genes and a good upbringing are a comfortable life and more power and influence in the world. And if the world tumbles into a major worldwide crisis somehow (WWIII, massive famines, whatever), you and your offspring are the most likely to survive because you have access to the most resources.

That's the whole premise of the movie Idiocracy.

Which sucked IMO.

It wasn't that great, but it's worth at least watching once.
