Exactly. So the link you seem to make between wealth and intelligence here is retarded:

"a poor dim single mom living off welfare after following her gina tingles and getting preggers with an ex felon"
Will most likley have average kids. But she is also far less likley to have above average kids as well.


From wikipedia:


y is the expected IQ of the child,
x is the mean IQ of the population to which the parents belong,
h^2 is the heritability of IQ,
m and f are the IQs of the mother and father, respectively


f and especially m are above average in this study, is it a wonder y is also higher?
