There is a benefit of having a largely stupid population though, they are easily controlled through what they see in the media and by what the government tells them. If the government tells people that they need to attack Iraq to "protect freedom" the millions of uneducated armchair patriots will support it. They will never question that maybe the government is only attacking Iraq so they can install a puppet government and take control of the country with the 2nd largest oil reserves. And if they encounter anyone who is educated enough to question the government's motives, they will call that person a communist or some such other nonsensical title.
