What would happen if geniuses or people with above average is started running things?

They already do, silly. Many are too smart for our own good.

Low iq people don't run much of anything, they just aren't capable of it - and smarter people would take anything they had from them any way.

Nothing. Smart means you can pass a test......it doesn't mean you can find the start button on the dishwasher

They do. It is the people we elect, especially Republicans, who are not very bright. The bureaucrats are usually Bove average.

We might have a good government. But that sounds too good to be true...
