That is just humiliating. These aren’t professional sports leagues for god’s sake.

This obsession with people’s junk must stop.

Income tax helps, but rich people have assets and securities, not salaries.

This distribution is a direct consequence of property taxes on domiciles and the taxation of essential costs of living like groceries and transportation.

If the zombies who perpetrate and enjoy this shit were extirpated the world would improve immediately. There’s no reason to allow animal torturers roam this planet’s surface.

Exclude non-profits and open-source software. In fact, tax multinationals out of existence.

Terrance Tao is smarter than I am but he is not better in some absolute sense, so you don’t need to deny that he’s smarter on my behalf. Instead, here are some unquantifiable things that do make people meaningfully “better:” kindness, passion, empathy, courage, honesty, wisdom.

Honesty bids me to acknowledge that Tao is smart, and wisdom that it doesn’t matter (re, the meaning of life). Lastly, standardized tests don’t measure EQ because it’s hard to quantify and irrelevant for college placement.

Americans are so fucking weird about IQ. Yes, some brains function better than others. Whoop-de-doo. Case in point, Trump and cows and shit.
