Maybe he should ask Trump since everything he does is the best and has never been done better or before.

“Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) began recruiting “high-IQ small-government revolutionaries” willing to work 80+ hours per week with no pay to help slash federal spending.
Future headline : “Department of Government Efficiency still completely without staff as those meeting the high requirements to take the job are smart enough to have zero interest in doing the job under those conditions"
Alternate future headline: "Department of Government Efficiency plagued by yet another scandal as its 45th employee is charged with fraud for attempting to personally gain financially from fraud they were perpetrating in the government".

Anyone smart enough wouldn’t want to work for him.
Last time I checked my IQ it was 129. Not super high but not trump level
Well, if nothing else it's efficient 😬
I think this will be easy to hire for; imagine the damage you can do to competition, or the low cost regulatory capture you can achieve, by just getting one clever manipulator near this not too bright narcissist
Corporations will be stumbling over themselves to insert HIGHLY paid people into these positions.
So, slavery will soon be making a comeback in 2025.
IS use to mean Information System. It now means Intellectual Slavery.
M-elon Head to run the department of slavery with un-paid workers. What an unstable 'genius'.
high IQ
work for free
lmao, hard pass. Thanks.
Staff it with rich fucks looking for relevence deep in that Musky sphincter and change it to "Department of Getting Eaten". Efficiency accomplished.
These people who get so incredulous about "soft" social sciences, (think critical theory) yet talk about IQ testing like it's Newton's 4^th^ law do not value, or do not understand the science. Even the serious people who defend IQ in good faith, speak of it with qualifications.
What is so attractive about a system to categorize and rank humanity? And what do the people who are attracted to it have in common?
Fascists love the notion of a natural order, because it gives them license to hold power over people "lower in the hierarchy." They'll use anything and everything to establish whatever "natural order" serves their purpose at any given moment, and IQ works quite nicely in a lot of situations.
