If brains lead to having money in this nation we'd probably be better off.
But this nation is not remotely a meritocracy.
No nation ever has been to my knowledge.
The Mongol Empire came closest, but for only a short time.
Those bloodthirsty savages were more like dumb jock bullies. If talent at subhuman behavior is properly rewarded based on merit useful to a psycho like Genghis Khan, then the US is a meritocracy because of the way superior athletes are immediately rewarded from childhood on, not based on their usefulness to society and the economy.
