2. Second Basic Law


The probability that a certain person is stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.


3. Third Basic Law


A stupid person is one who causes losses to another person or a group of people while they gain nothing or may even suffer losses.

5. Fifth Basic Law


Stupid people are the most dangerous type of people.
