Peace Corps purpose

I agree that the Peace Corps is not taken seriously in most elite circles (especially I can imagine in Moscow where outsiders are often disdained and seen as a threat). But one of Peace Corps central purposes is a way to get Americans acquainted with the world for US government jobs and intelligence services.

Personally, It was the best 2 years of my life. _(As a farm boy from rural Idaho, it was the first time I had ever met and associated with East and West coast wealthy liberals and I was so surprised at how rude they were)_ After the Peace Corps there is a literal fast track way to get federal jobs after you return to America. Many people settle or get jobs in DC.

I applied for the Foreign service twice and was rejected because I failed the writing portion.

I was actually accepted a second time in 2014 after my divorce but I didn't want to go to some Podunk 3rd world country. So I was going to teach English in China, then move to Siberia, but I got a job in Moscow. I am so thankful that the Peace Corps allowed a "country bumpkin" like me to associate and rub elbows with the elite like you. I am not surprised you have disdain for Peace Corps volunteers.

I found it fascinating that intelligence is malleable (changes).

Also that poor people tend to be less intelligent than rich people on standardized IQ tests, but in broader tests, like general problem solving they tend to be just as smart. http://moscowamerican.com/wiki/Sociology:_Class
