You can't learn IQ. It isn't an achievement test that you can study for. The big problem with his theory is if the theory is true then where did higher IQs come from because clearly you can't have a better education and nutrition etc. without the higher IQ first, otherwise a better education and better nutrition came from nowhere...it just appeared outta thin air.

After all, wealthy nations can afford much better EDUCATION for their children and also benefit from better health and nutrition -

We are wealthy country. We have decent public education for all people, plus the poor kids get free lunch to boot. We even bus the poorer kids to the higher income neighborhood schools. What's the problem then? How come the IQ's don't increase for the blacks and hispanics?
