> There is not really that much deviation in intelligence among most adults.
Have you ever spent any time with anyone that makes less than $100,000 a year or didn’t graduate college?
I’ve spent time (both by choice and not by choice) talking to homeless people, mentally ill people, addicts and alcoholics, recipients of Section 8 housing vouchers, adults that aren’t fully literate, low-income service industry workers, immigrant laborers, and other marginalized groups. Some of the issues these groups face are due to mental health or impulse control problems (my own problems with that is why I spent a lot of time talking to addicts and alcoholics) but there is a wide range of intelligence in adult humans.
