I’d have to do a lot more than just filter for USA. There’s a strong correlation between age and income, and the LW population is much younger than the average US citizen. There’s a pretty decent chance that the gap in IQ-income is more a function of age. I’d have to divide high IQ individuals into age buckets and show that their average income is higher. I don’t think that data currently exists, or at least I wasn’t able to find it.

Filtering for USA is done in a line of R code. It’s not much additional effort if you already have set up the rest.
Oh yeah, it will be easy to do. I’m just mobile right now and don’t have access to the computer with the data on it. I’ll update tonight though.
