IQ tests are not valid indicators of intelligence for several reasons:Blacks have a median IQ of 85. The poorest education results. I wonder did you include drug dealers and shoplifting in their incomes. They earn less because they have less ability and education and few come from two parent families. You earn less because you deserve less defined by your ability
- Limited Scope: IQ tests primarily assess specific cognitive abilities, such as logical reasoning and problem-solving, but do not capture the full complexity of human intelligence, including emotional intelligence and creativity.

- Subjectivity: Intelligence is a subjective quality that cannot be quantified by a single number; it encompasses various aspects of cognitive functioning.

In summary, while IQ tests provide some insights into cognitive abilities, they are not a comprehensive measure of intelligence and can be influenced by various factors.
Again, your two parent narrative is fake news. Your entire argument is fake news. You are an example of a mediocre white man who is unqualified to be having this discussion.
