I don't know about that. In my experience, not so smart people do that all the time. I have worked some shitty jobs when I was younger and saw people who could barely write a coherent sentence backstabbing each other for a promotion that would give them 20 cents an hour more.

I know smart people are competitive and they do screw each other over, but those that get screwed over are smart enough to figure out other avenues to success. Again, though, it all comes down to drive and desire. I know a few very smart people who are very lazy and are barely getting by.
