a couple of quotes from the article's author's conclusion on the research

*FOR THE DENSE: THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS, THESE ARE COPIED WORDS I AM USING TO MAKE THE POINT THAT PSYCHOLOGY RESEARCH IS IRRESPONSIBLE AND NOT BASED ON FACTS*

Quote:
You all thought rich people had money because they had advantages and opportunities available to them that you did not. Now it seems that not only are these people considerably richer than yow, they are also considerably cleverer than you.
Quote:
proving conclusively that that specific money worry, and not the trappings of wealth, which might include a better education, was the reason for poor people being stupid.
i emphasised the last part, research like this is backwards, it assumes poor people are stupid then looks for a reason for that.
