There is a difference between being mentally ill and mentally disabled.
I have depression, which classifies me as "mentally ill", and I have an IQ of around 150 and two masters degrees.
The child the OP is referring to is clearly mentally retarded, not mentally ill.
Quite frankly, I would be fine with systematically killing 50% of the world's population by lining up half of every town and city's population and shooting them to pieces with machine guns. That would be unethical, yes. But we NEED to lower our population and it's much easier just to get rid of the bad eggs than do that.
Interesting issue. Being a member of MENSA (I just barely squeaked by the admission requirements), I think your solution is refreshingly brash. The problem is that it ignores the element of social mobility. Rich people that are stupid (like Prince Charles) need to trade places with near-genius preschoolers that live in dumps.
The mechanisms of mobility are complicated. Return-on-Investment to society is highly important. Are there examples in any country where this has happened with grace and efficiency?
Child, I'm also a Mensan, so don't try to play the "I'm smarter than you" card. No, due to human stupidity and incompetence, there has never been any grace when undertaking your suggestion. A visionary will have to rise to power and force it onto the population, rather than trying to manipulate or persuade the masses into doing it. If we are talking about creating the best society possible, it would be testing the intelligence of everyone on the planet and killing the lower half. However, it's a complicated issue.
Also, Mensa is a thorough disappointment. No power. Merely an upper-class club where intelligent people come to brag. I am probably going to terminate my membership next year and try something else.
Adolf Hitler already did it your way, and Germany got it's ass kicked. Africans, being a bit more clever than Nazis, cannibalize each other to keep Darwinian selection alive. Meanwhile, your disappointment with Mensa does not surprise me. You need to be a big fish in a smaller pond. Listening to braggarts at Mensa will only aggravate your mental illnesses.
I gained entry into Mensa with an exceptionally high IQ score, so I am on par with almost everyone there. I just don't like it. I only joined with the aim of creating a party full of equally intelligent people to start conducting covert research into drugs, psychological conditioning and biological warfare. The sort of which cannot be done legally at educational facilities.
After a few years, however, it became apparent to me that Mensa members are more interested in swimming around in a pool of their own narcissism than assisting me with trying to create an ideal society, so I'm leaving.
Ahhhh, a most interesting comment! Mensans certainly do love swimming in their own narcissism; you state that rather well. The perfect society created with biological agents, drugs, and conditioning sounds on par with all the other narcissistic obsessions that I have heard at MENSA meetings. If you want traction, dear boy, you'll have to stick with solutions that have stood the tests of time, like bullets, military indoctrination, and force multipliers.
I like MENSA meetings because it is a zoo of highly creative animals with slightly deluded ideas. The "Stepford Wives" is a very common one. Wouldn't you be interested in attending our next meeting? I'll give you a distinguished introduction.
IIN my coworkers made mental kid apologize to me?

You both sound pretentious!
