I'm sure there is something to this. For example, it may help to explain my consistent failure to raise songbirds, no matter what procedures I use in planting the birdseed.

Third (and Golden) Law
A stupid person is someone who causes damage to another person, or a group of people, without any advantage accruing to himself (or herself) -- or even with some resultant self-damage.

The author ignores the fact that some groups of stupid people are so dangerous that they must be damaged, even if the immediate result is self damage at no gain.

Super article. Super post. And, yes, this analysis does apply to the political "leaders" in New Orleans and Louisiana. Click below. (And I didn't write this in response to your post. It just happens that great minds think alike.)
