Is it stupid to wonder about stupidity?
Is it helpless to try to do anything about it?
Is it wrong to try to steal stupidity away from the truly stupid?
Are these intelligent questions?

I think he somewhat proves his point in the first paragraph of his second basic law. He can't spell.
Someone once said that the first step to wisdom is realizing how stupid you are or how little you really know. In reality, a person would be lucky to even know one billionth of the knowledge available on the earth. Think about it. Could you even quote the first ten pages from your favorite book by memory? Then think of all the millions of books that are out there, millions of webpages, scientific findings, etc. Watch the TV show Street Smarts or Jay Leno when he asks people on the street simple questions. The stupidity of people will amaze you.

It is far easier to ignorantly control others than it is to wisely control yourself.
