Because I'm calling bullshit on those figures, IQ tests are notoriously unreliable across cultural and societal boundaries.

Hell even across economic boundaries within the same society.

That's irrelevant. What matters is what they _are_ reliable for.

Edited to add one source, but there's a lot of literature on the subject, from Prof. Lynn to James Watson (Double helix discoverer), and William Shockley (transistor con-inventor): just look up the Wikipedia articles in them before these posts get whited out by the PC police here
