Intelligence is a complex and multifaceted trait that cannot be fully represented by a single measure such as IQ. However, in general, individuals with lower levels of cognitive ability may experience greater difficulty in performing tasks that require problem-solving, critical thinking, and analytical skills, which are critical for effective budgeting, resource allocation, and decision-making.

That being said, it's important to recognize that efficient governance and management of complex systems are not only based on an individual's cognitive ability, as it also depends on the effective use of social, cultural, and political awareness, leadership qualities, effective governance structures, and a commitment to equity and justice.

Moreover, it is possible to support the development of the cognitive and analytical skills required for effective budgeting, resource allocation, and decision-making through education, training, and other resources. Thus, it may be possible for individuals with lower levels of cognitive ability to develop these skills over time through specialized educational programs and other resources.

Overall, the ability to effectively budget, allocate resources, and make decisions depends on a broad range of factors beyond just an individual's cognitive ability, and cannot be reduced to IQ level alone. However, cognitive ability does play a significant role, which is why providing access to training and education programs can be an important way to support all individuals to reach their full potential in contributing to effective governance and management.
