Stupid People

Somebody has come up with a good explanation for what makes a person stupid.

According to The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity, there a four types of people in the world. They are identified by their interactions with others and the end benefit to both parties.

1. Helpful People - Generally the other party will be better off at the end of the interaction.
   
2. Intelligent People - Both parties will be better off after the interaction.
   
3. Stupid People - Both parties will be worse off after the interaction.
   
4. Bandits - The bandit will be better off at the end of the interaction.
   

Obviously it's much more detailed than that. The most important thing for you the casual reader to know is the fifth basic law.

A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

The corollary of the Law is that:

A stupid person is more dangerous than a bandit.

Remember, there's no such thing as a stupid question... only stupid people.
