He has a few interesting points but I don't fully buy it.
The knowledge half-life making parenting harder is true and many have experienced these effects first hand but there's more to this story than a knowledge half-life. The issue isn't actually a lack of knowledge but more like a lack of proper knowledge. Much of the knowledge the average person has grown up with was false to begin with and the flimsy societal framework that kept the lie alive is dying thanks to the significant social changes we've had. What is happening is that we're actually starting to rediscover truths about things where previous generations had believed lies. "Relationships" are actually a very good example of this. Female nature and male nature has not changed since recorded history and you can actually go back to the beginning of recorded history and find men who've written knowledge about men and women that would be more valuable and useful to young men or women today to understand than any of the conventional "knowledge" these young people's parents likely have on the subject. That's not because of the half-life of knowledge, that's because the knowledge the parents thought they had was faulty in the first place.
Think about knowledge regarding anything to do with human systems (relationships for example) as being based on knowledge of genetics and then knowledge of environmental factors influencing genetics which then leads to specific outcomes given the genetic and environmental factors. Much of the knowledge that people pass around to others like parent to child involved the parents not understanding the current environment nor the genetic factors such that the parent merely tells the child what to do to get the outcome the child wants under environmental factors that no longer exist. If the parent instead taught the child the genetic factors and then taught the child knowledge of how exactly changes in environmental factors lead to different outcomes given the genetics, then a child can use this knowledge to properly apply to the environment in which the child knows. This is "real" knowledge and most people don't have it. The average person in this world doesn't have real knowledge. In fact many people are taught false ideas about reality such that much of the advice they spew is worthless. Yet, you can go back thousands of years and find the knowledge that I've just described that is just as applicable today as it was back then.
His example of lack of being able to run a business is also false. The fundamentals of how to run a business have no changed and will not change. Any time in history that people think the fundamentals have changed ends up coming back to bite whomever thought that. Wages don't go up because the supply/demand relationship for wages have not changed in a manner that leads to higher wages. The cost to train employees actually has no barring on direct impact on wages of employees. It would only have an impact on wages if the cost of training made the industry overall less profitable which led to less investment and thus less demand for jobs which would depress wages. This likely goes on to an extent, so he's not entirely wrong in this sense. The lack of specialized, superiorly skilled employees being in demand does lower wages but this is a problem with technology itself and it was always the point of technology. Instead of a highly skilled White men (yes this is a rare and gender issue) being the only people capable of a specific job because of the competence required, we now have Indian women that can do the same job at a level that is good enough for the business so you've increased the supply of the labor immensely. This has little to do with the knowledge half-life he talks about but the knowledge half-life is a contributing factor but what he needs to understand is corporations are doing this ON PURPOSE. Corporations realized that having highly skilled specialized employees was costly because these employees could demand higher pay so business have been purposely working to reduce the competency needed of their staff while also ensuring if anyone is specialized it's some sort of proprietary specialty that isn't transferable to other businesses. This allows the employer to pay as little as possible. This is what companies truly discuss in closed doors at the higher ups. Even without the knowledge half-life we'd be seeing depressed wages. Governments are pouring in immigrants and companies are spending billions of dollars into researching how to keep your wages as low as possible.
The solution to the knowledge half-life in business is to eliminate income and payroll taxes then ban immigration. Right now "capital" is taxed less than labor which creates an incentive for companies to continue to purchase "technology", the very technology companies use to try to diminish the labor expertise required to run the businesses. This has the two pronged effect of lowering demand for jobs directly while also increasing the supply of any one job because more people are now capable of doing it this lowering wages on average across the board. If you eliminated income and payroll taxes this would give more incentive for businesses to use better skilled labor instead of technology where available. It would have a somewhat minor effect because something technology is definitely superior but it would at least equal the playing field and stop giving incentive to companies to use technology at every turn even when they really shouldn't be. The banning of immigration would have the most profound impact on wages but you can't expect a good outcome without also taxing expatriation of profits and taxing foreign profits and having good tariffs to ensure domestic production stays competitive with foreign production.
We don't need to sterilize people under 90 IQ. The real issue we need to focus on is creating a "system" or "structure" if you would call it that in which smarter/superior men were the men who would be the most likely to procreate without having to force the eugenics.
This can be accomplished by abolishing the entire welfare system including healthcare and subsequently lowering taxes then abolishing the civil rights act to allow discrimination. I would even go further and implementing a constitutional amendment that allows discrimination as a human right rather than the opposite of disallowing it so States can't make it illegal to discriminate. The reason for this is not to discriminate against the other races but rather to allow discrimination toward women. With the deportations you suggest (all non-Whites, most especially jews should be deported with the assets of jews expropriated), that would create an overall effect in society that was naturally eugenic without having to force it. The truth of the matter is not everyone deserves a high wage nor does everyone need to be intelligent in the society. You'll always get deviations from the mean and that's fine because we will still need below average peasants to work below average jobs.
