Dumb people tend to end up poor.
I think it's more like 'Poor people end up dumb'...
Lack of educational opportunities, lack of opportunities in general due to cultural bias and class discrimination. I've seen so many kids (i.e., 18-25 yr. olds) come through the university with plenty good hardware sitting on their shoulders, but absolutely no clue as to how to think or even focus their mind. These are usually the poor ones (first in the family to go to university). OK, this is anecdotal, but I see it over and over.
