If I were to run for President, would you vote for me?

Maybe!

May I, out of all honesty, have a spot in your cabinet?

Now Parakeet, you must nominate your VP and cabinet members.

Who should be VP and why do they want to be VP?

I'll be your vice president. My stances will help you gather the socially liberal and libertarian votes. It will be like the Sarah Palin effect, but in reverse.

No, slaves can't efficiently do anything but manual labor, and a strong economy needs more than that. At most, I might provide my services as a provider of protective services, and I doubt I'd be interested in doing that in the first place.

I don't think "can't" is correct. May not, would be. A scientist can equally become a slave
as much as a Burger King manager could be. Occupation does not relate to intelligence.
Not by necessity at least, though I'm certain a study could be fabricated to prove otherwise.

If I could vote...

No.

Probably me.
why? because I want power, no matter how this government would be.

Umm.... "can't" is somewhat correct, because of the fact that slaves will tend to dislike being slaves, and higher level jobs will require them to have levels of freedom that slaves will tend to use to rebel as non-slavery will be considered more favorable than slavery. So, the entire issue isn't intelligence or anything like that, but rather economic efficacy, slavery for a system will be economically inefficient to an extent that will prevent solid, diverse growth. I mean, I am not denying that it could be efficient for plantations(I might have to investigate the legal costs of a slave system), but I doubt it would be efficient for a non-plantation based system in a more modern economy.

Also, occupation does relate to intelligence, I think that there has been research done on multiple occasions showing that certain occupations tend to be smarter, and I would not be surprised if certain occupations demand a certain level of intelligence to be a reasonable opportunity. Finally, IQ and income correlate, and income strongly relates to occupation... so... yes.

Well, I think you said "Occupation does not relate to intelligence", so I simply followed suit in using similar terminology just so it would not be confusing, and it CERTAINLY isn't. I think a sensible person can understand what I meant.

almost ANYbody could get a degree if they really wanted it.


now, having said that!.. I vote for myself!

Not really. 50% of people are drooling retards.

Scientific fact.

Yeah because they're stupified by the system. There's not enough motivation to inspire real intellect in the system now.. there's not enough intellect in the system. There's too much system.
