What if the Surgeon General were to declare “stupidity” a disease and the National Institutes of Health were to declare a National Emergency and manpower and money were utilized to eliminate stupidity from the human condition? That would be cool!

Years ago, as a young city hall reporter in my hometown of Clinton, Iowa, at the end of a contentious debate over whether or not Clinton would remain the largest city in the state without even a basic building code (it would), one of my favorite council members gave me a quote that I will never forget. As the building code ordinance was defeated yet again, the councilman leaned over to the press table and sighed these words.

“If only stupidity were painful…”
