There are plenty of jobs that don't require intelligence. This is just delusional talk.

And people that aren't particularly intelligent still deserve a chance to make a living and lead a normal life, and also deserve to be protected - via laws - from being taken advantage by those who are more intelligent, cunning and unethical.

I never said anything to the contrary. Just stop trying to pretend low skill labor doesn't exist.
