    There are more dumb people than smart people.

    Since “dumb” and “smart” are both defined by the median between each other, there logically follows that there are always about as much “dumb” as “smart” people.

      It really doesn’t, because there are very few smart people and shitloads of stupid people. “Average” intelligence levels are quite low, and this is why.
