In a blog post, Posner wrote, "I suggest that the only worthwhile reforms of
teacher compensation are raising teacher wages uniformly, providing
recognition and modest bonuses for outstanding teachers, and increasing
hiring standards."[45] In the same post, he wrote, "I am not clear what we
should think the problem of American education (below the college level) is.
Most children of middle-class ... Americans are white or Asian and attend
good public or private schools, usually predominantly white. The average
white IQ is of course 100 and the Asian (like the Jewish) almost one
standard deviation higher, that is, 115. The average black IQ is 85, a full
standard deviation below the white average, and the average Hispanic IQ has
been estimated recently at 89. Black children in particular often come from
disordered households, which has a negative effect on ability to learn and
perhaps indeed on IQ. ... Increasingly, black and Hispanic students find
themselves in schools with few white or Asian students. The challenge to
American education is to provide a useful education to the large number of
Americans who are unlikely to benefit from a college education or from high
school courses aimed at preparing students for college." | i****d

写作飞快，据说一个晚上能写30页的文章，还不需要大改。
当然他的论点有一定问题，就是黑人移民为啥平均不错。不过他肯定会说是selection
bias.
经济系一帮人都看不起普通人的，觉得自己智商高，数学经济理论基础好，对智商低的
普遍瞧不起。
最大原因是，经济从50年代起，把微观经济学建立了完善的数理基础,80年代起，把宏
观建立了微观基础。把整个框架用数学建立起来，自成逻辑体系，要攻击它的结论，必
须对整个体系非常熟悉，用它的体系语言说话，否则辩论起来，这些人一听，你根本不
懂，就会说你不懂。
只要你有一点逻辑漏洞，立马说你stupid. |
