>> Something often touted in the psychometrics literature is that the number of jobs for folks with IQ under 85 are quite rare in the US where once they were common
I think Jordan Peterson quoted the stats as people with IQ under 83 are completely unemployable i.e. even the army can't get a net positive out of them. I found that deeply concerning in several ways.
IMHO we need to work on reducing the cost of living so people can mostly opt-out without losing their home and dying. Instead it's always push harder, more growth, etc...
