I also don’t think IQ is a great basis for deciding who gets to immigrate.

I’d agree. Very skilled people in particular fields can often have low IQs. Since when did the exalted ‘IQ’ become paramount anyway? It was only developed because there’s no objective way to measure brain power.

Would you rather live in a high IQ or lo IQ nation?

Would you rather live in a neighborhood where people are intelligent or a neighborhood where people are idiots?

Would you want to send your child to a school where you think the student body is not very bright?
