Smart people avoid bad decisions because of the consequences of the decision, average people avoid bad decisions to avoid punishment, extra stupid people continue to make bad decisions even if they are punished.  Average people are stupid because they do not think of the consequences of their decisions but only if they will get punished for it.  Therefore punishment is not necessary for smart people.  Punishment replaced the learning process of letting people make good and bad decisions to learn the consequences of their decisions.

No matter how hard
    you beat a fool,
    you can’t pound out
    the foolishness.

A reproof availeth more with a wise man, than a hundred stripes with a fool.
