So… they knew the value of their own time and didn’t overwork when they didn’t have to?
Most office workers could probably learn from that mindset.

It takes emotion to make rash decisions based on reactionary feelings.
If you only do things because it feels right instead of what you’ve thought through and understood as a rational course if action… you’re doing the same thing as those who storm capital buildings cause an orange man told them to.
Wouldn’t that fall under the basic necessities part of OPs post?
How my actions affect other people.
Don’t worry, should it ever happen, there’s plenty of wannabe Napoleons who would be willing to step in to take over once theyre gone :)
The problem is, if they’re afraid they have the resources to do something about it. That much wealth can buy a lot of private armies. It also buys a lot of lobbyists.
It takes more thought and planning then reacting with emotion against them. That feeds their goals just fine.
And affordable.
Don’t forget congressional and state/local races as well. Trump is only one point of power, albeit much more visible. But the executive branch can only do so much if the legislature is red anyway.

“A lot” is an interesting descriptor, especially when comparing loud easily defined groups with quieter more subtle groups.

Perhaps that’s the level of chocolate? Like you can have 90% dark chocolate, this is 40%.
I mean, I’m not saying things can’t get better… but they’ll never be like Idiocracy. The reason people seem to be getting stupider isn’t because of eugenics, it’s because of the concerted efforts of those in power to stigmatize intelligence. They’re not just going to up and disappear… they’re going to exploit the under-educated.
Will never happen, there’s far too many selfish smart people who aren’t waiting to have kids. There will be a ruling class as long as we continue on this path.
No ifunny or 9gag? It’s like you’re not even trying.
