In this technology enriched society we find ourselves in, there will always be perplexities. Therefore, any answer may or may not meet your expectations. Probably > 45%.

Depends on your definition of "stupid."
If you mean "gullible" or "easily deceived" then the answer is very very high. If you mean "Sub-moron IQ," then only about a quarter of your neighbors are really really stupid.
If you mean "dumber than me," well, that's yet to be determined, isn't it?
The scary thing is, dummies breed a lot more than smarties, on average. Colloquially put, but then (as I mentioned) I am not sure of your own capacities.
See, this is called "evolution" (and no, it is not capitalized except by morons who want to treat science as a religious sect). What it means is that intelligence is being bred out of the human race. Eventually, intelligence will be a rare trait, and the smart will inherit the work, while the stupid will demand (and probably get) the benefit.
But don't sweat it yet. So far, there are enough intelligent people on this planet to keep the dummies well fed, housed and entertained. So far.
Cheers.

The number of stupid people in this world is directly proportional to the number of people with high I.Q.s and superiority complexes who are only secure in their own intelligence when pointing out the failings of others.

To quote " stupid is as stupid does" Who is to be the judge in this ????? Hmmm....
Stupid can be defined only as a barrier to learning...I have never met a single individual human who was absolutely incapable of learning...
So there may be a small % of actually stupid persons scattered in the population of humanity. But they are truly BLESSED with not understanding the sh!t the rest of us must deal with!!!!!!!

On Yahoo! Answers? Fluctuates every second from 0-100% :P
But in general, I think 0%. Not one person would know everything... as in EVERYTHING. Everyone can be stupid at some point.

0 per cent.
Not having to meet the other persons standards and levels of wisdom wouldn't and shouldn't classify the other as stupid.
In this world,we are all equals.We just vary in thoughts,visions,ideals,interests,degree of expressions & intensity.
We all are unique,distinct individuals having its own personalities,characters and values making us all special.
Just different....But certainly not stupid!
:)good day..

Maybe 90% stupid people. I don't mean gullible, or nice but stupid (people who think violence is the only answer, impulsive, hot-heads, annoying, idiots, people who hurt you emotionally,etc). And it seems to be growing.

proportion is extremely asking the question "how lots out of a hundred?"on your occasion ,regardless of if it quite is 40-one out of three hundred then say it quite is X of a hundred.placed it interior the equation 40-one/3 hundred=X/a hundred 41x100=X x 3 hundred X=40-one/3 hundred x a hundred=13.7 approx ordinary thank you to verify is,divide the 40-one by using 3 hundred and then multiply by using a hundred.
