theorem on groups and their relative intelligence

pondering this
a while
and well it
came up today
so
I thought
I would
scribble something here

I believe
that groups inherently
detract from the individual intelligence
of those who comprise that group.

for example

a soccer fan may be intelligent
but a stadium full of soccer fans
would lose to a pile of rocks
in the brains dept.
(don't get me started on football fans)

the difficulty for me
is determining the exact ratio of loss

it is obvious that
in sufficiently large groups
intelligence is reduce to zero
hence
the colloquial use of
"President Bush"

I would
propose the following
formula for determining group intelligence

average the IQ scores of the people in the group
and subtract 1 point of IQ from the average for
each member of the group

for our purposes we define a group
as three or more people

Democracy is a farce and other ideas on governance

Democracy is
as we all should know
a system by which the
common people decide enmass
usually through voting
the actions of the whole

unfortunatly
most people are too stupid
and uniformed to be worthy
of such a responsibility.

which is why I greatly appreciate
this great republic of ours.

while in its current state
we have managed to elect
the least qualified amongst us
to make our decisions.

I suppose
that only furthers the suggestion
that the average person is
incapable of even selecting
appropriately qualified leaders.

Although I believe
a large amount of the
blame for the current crop
of so called leaders
falls on the tabloid
style of journalism our
media has descended to.

will be continued later I need to get to the next post
