Recently I have been
reading some studies related to how one's genes affect one's
personality and intellect. The most democratic and politically
correct modern scientific theory is 50/50. It states that an
individual is made of approximately 50% genetic predispositions and
approximately 50% environmental influence.
I remembered that in
USSR, in most government departments, when people applied for the
job, their lineage was carefully checked. No one wanted aristocrats
or some capitalists setting foot in the government. So only people,
who were verified nobodies in 3-4rth generation, were hired. For
instance, KGB was very famous for officially hiring only people from
very humble origins. So if you apply the most politically correct
theory to this, then the only people who worked there were 100% very
mediocre. And they also used to get them to marry each other lol.
