Want Your Country to Thrive? Give Geniuses a Universal Basic Income
I&#x27;m not sure the idea of genius is one we should rely on. Why is it that we think one or two great people are responsible for all progress?<p>I&#x27;d rather think that it&#x27;s about creating an environment where <i>someone</i> will solve our problems, and that we merely need to nurture the environment.<p>With pre-identified geniuses, we end up with an entitled class populated by people who had hired tutors, and a bunch of people who think they&#x27;ll never amount to anything because they didn&#x27;t pass the test.
