Tucson Speaks Out: October 24

Got a penny? Tucson Speaks Out: October 24th, an article by Carlo Cipolla titled "The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity," outlines five basic laws describing how stupidity operates as a powerful and underestimated social force. These laws assert that stupidity is widespread, independent of other traits, harmful without personal gain, consistently underestimated, and more dangerous than malicious intent. Most of the Trump administration leadership are either "bandit" or "stupid" quadrant basic law. Cipoll argued that it is the job of the intelligent to keep the stupid in check, and societies head downhill fast if they fail to do so. He also mentioned that the current administration's decision to embrace Putin is an example of his moral depravity. The article suggests that Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, along with other members of the panel, could apply this same logic to the Second Amendment if only a majority of our highest court could apply it to our democracy. The author also criticizes President Trump's obsession with revenge on perceived enemies and corruption that is enriching him, his family and friends.
