Yup. This is absolutely, mind-bogglingly, stupid. Start with his firs real argument: "More Geniuses" and the resultant more good inventions, etc. Then consider the corollary is more stupidity, adn the quote attrib to Einstein: >> "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe!" The damage wreaked by more stupid people can, and historically has repeatedly overcome the good done by geniuses. The author also overlooks the ability of current and emerging technology to magnify the effect of genius, starting with Steve Jobs' 'computers are bicycles for the mind' analogy. No need to continue with the rest of this shallow drivel arguing to create a disaster. Wow.
