The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity
This essay, by Italian economist Carlo Cipolla, has been around since 1976, but it remains fundamental to the understanding of human society and its defining characteristic, stupidity. Everyone should read it, because everyone is stupid about something some of the time, even though most of our problems are caused by the incalculably large number of people who are stupid about most things most of the time.
Speaking of stupidity, how did we miss this one the other day?
