It really should.

The way I see it is that survival of the fittest for humans has turned to our intelligence. Back in the earlier days of civilization, brute force was a viable method to establish dominance. If somebody had something you want, you took it. Strength and power was everything. The strong lead and the weak either followed or were destroyed.


In modern society, with all of our advanced tech, being strong isn't enough. It doesn't matter how big and bad you are, there are people with guns that can take you down, regardless of how physically strong you are. How do you establish dominance in such a society then? By being smarter than everybody else.

The way I see it, one's standing in society should be determined entirely by their intelligence. Those with lower intelligence should shut up and do what those with higher intelligence say. Those with high intelligence should be the "alpha" men and women of modern society. If you're an idiot, you shouldn't have a say in matters above you. Period.
