Perhaps we need some sort of document that states, and that people in elected office would swear an oath to support, that no matter where you fall in the bell curve, that only you have the right to pursue your own path when deciding what is best for yourself. I just can't think of what to call such a thing.

We could call it "The Constitution of the United States of America". That has a nice ring to it.

So? The 'average' IQ could be 200, which would make a lot of 'below-average' people still really smart. :)

I think it is implied that the average IQ is 100. But you are right there is nothing wrong having 50% below average if the average were 200.
