A good refutation to the "IQ is going up" argument is to look at reaction times, which are not affected by education, and which never stopped getting worse. Over 120 years people got 42% dumber (by 1884 standard)http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2730791/Are-STUPID-Britons-people-IQ-decline.html …

Average IQ is indeed dropping, because the democratic welfare (but I repeat myself) state is enthusiastic about stupid babies. Not that fast, though, because I expect their numbers are not corrected for race and thus immigration.
-
It's not actually dysgenic, though. The welfare state is going to collapse and those dying as a result will disproportionately be on the low end.

Education masks the decline in fluid intelligence both because it increases the number of literate people, and because it is biased in favor of crystallized intelligence. Fluid IQ (natural will-to-think) is really all that matters.
