I think the counter argument is as follows --> Lets assume that all brahmins have IQ 140 and above.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I did not say that, I used the bell curve

Sorry I didnt mean to say you did. I was just trying to simplify my argument.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->-----
For a healthy economy show that having a person of IQ 120 doing a job with a job reqt of IQ 100 is bad.
IOW if brahmins of say 130 are replaced by an OBC of IQ 120 for a job with 120 reqt while the brahmin does a job with reqt of 100 then is it bad ?

What is happening is inefficient use of resources
Are parsis an asset - yes
Could India get along without the parsis - yes again
Would India be better with the parsis- yes
In Uganda, with an average IQ of 75, Idi Amin kicked out the 100 IQ Indians and
yes Uganda survived and now Uganda has invited them back
What is happening in tamil nadu and other parts of India is lack of vision
In Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew gives money to get high IQ women to breed more
In US, IQ tests for employment are banned,
In India, microsoft uses IQ tests for hiring staff
I cant find the quote, but per Bill Gates, all he cares about is hiring the smartest
staff

Again what I am trying to say is that in an economy such as India there are not many jobs that require high IQ. We are not a completely knowledge based economy so we will have to show in some way that if a job requirement is of IQ-100 then a person with IQ-140 can still do a better job then IQ-120. The Tamilnadu situation says the foll
1. TN is not doing badly after 70% reservations.
2. This implies that even if diff castes have diff IQs it does really affect the economy a whole lot since the job reqts for most jobs dont require high IQs.
3. This might also imply that 70% reservations result in enough competition that given the current job market it results in enough competition that it doesnt really affect the economy.
