Entry: IQ and Political Legitimacy Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/iq_and_political_legitimacy#27052 Post contents: Intellectual differences are apparent to everyone and do not undedrmine the rule of law. We have varying intellects; and we should be ruled by the just and the wise. But we still should have laws and a division of power and various restraints because men do bad things not solely because they're stupid but because they're greedy, avaricious, in the service of some faction, or simply because they are mistaken. We are unequal. But no one is so unequal from his fellow citizens that his inferiors should be his slave or the superiors should be beyond the restraints of laws which inure to the benefit of ruler and ruled over time.
