1. IQ test are strong predictors of job performance, regardless of education. Think how much it would help the poor if you could submit an IQ test with a job application. You wouldn’t have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on college, just a couple hundred on a test.

Bullshit! The jobs requiring the highest IQ aren't always the highest paying. Furthermore, you talk about "jobs" and "the market" as if the career path people choose is set in stone. A high IQ person could choose a less stable career path. I know many people in the Puppetry...

But test coaching is a thing.. that seems to have quite the impact on IQ results. How could you possibly keep it "fair"? It's best kept as a general indicator rather than implemented as you propose

A person with a 95 IQ who works very hard is more likely to be successful than a person with a 135 IQ who is lazy.

We can't be "equal" until we can "conquer biology completely" we are gonna need a whole helluva lot of East Asian, East European Jewish, & right of bell curve IQ scientists to figure out IQ boosting therapies & full body automated bio-printing / bio-refurbishment therapy

However we need to VALUE the HIGH IQ people to even start approaching this level of technology in the first place. If we really want equality we have to put on a pedestal the high IQ people in the first place and give them incentive to develop those technologies that "equalize"
