I might be feeding a troll here(2 day old account - http://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=opticksversi ) but IQ is more a measure of a nations current economic development than something inherent in the population. See the Flynn Effect - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn_effect

You are feeding a troll, a deaded account whose link style, phrasing, and thoughtprints betray him, however:

IQ is more a measure of a nations current economic development than something inherent in the population.
If that were the case, what would explain the outliers -- high-IQ nations that are poor, and low-IQ nations that are rich?

"what would explain the outliers"
Precisely that, they're outliers. There's fully grown human beings that weigh 60lbs and ones that weigh almost 1000, it's not normal it just exists because there's 6 billion of us on the planet.
There's hundreds of countries, so obviously not every single one will follow due to statistics.
