Precisely. And there is good reason for it.
Let me level the plane, though. Consider studies concerning economic psychology and behavioral economics, specifically heuristics. In general, you'll realize that humans constantly make terrible (dumb) decisions on multiple levels, mainly those financial and health-related. When you have an increasing number of these people (i.e. the entire human race) due to population growth, you increase economic development, which filters down to all sectors that benefit in concordance, specifically education (the irony). You can probably figure out why Coca-Cola and McDonald's are such large corporations.
I'd also question your concept of intelligence. What do you mean by 'smart' people? Would you say smart people are somehow better than professional athletes who would fail your average IQ test?
I understand your minimalistic, slightly dismissive, somewhat sarcastic approach to these matters considering we're on a rap forum filled with over egoistical young men who have zero interest in anything other than sports & women, but hopefully you can expand on your thoughts more specifically in your next assertion.
Then again, if you're looking for a predominately highly-intelligent society contact Christopher Langan and see his views concerning eugenics. Or you could just join your local chess club.
