Intelligence in the general population is bad for buisiness.
we are wired for logical thinking, people just lack the motivation to apply it

There are plenty of smart people that do awful things. We need more morality, not more intelligence.
The borg are programmed to be happy, so I don't see why not.

dude, we sit down in school learning stuff that doesnt come very natural to us for 10 years atleast, i'd call that exploiting slight potency
"Logical thinking" is ill-defined and happiness values cannot be applied to an entire race.
If the average person was smarter than today, almost nothing would change in terms of social dynamics, if that's your real question.
If by logical thinking you mean better ignore our feelings and impulses, then I think the human race would just become a little more sociopathic.

not really, sociopathy comes from a disregard for the well-being of others. Being smarter does not mean you ignore feelings and impulses, it means you understand them better and act more optimally.

The words smart and logical are not always interchangeable.
