Rich people are assholes.…

How can we here at the DC make such a claim…because science says so!

We thank science for proving what most of us already know, lets summarize the article for you.

Quote from Karl Quino Professor of Organizational Behavior and Human Resources Management (you can be a professor of that?) states: “There is accumulating evidence that says, what’s most psychologically beneficial about having wealth is that it gives [people] a greater sense of control over their environments, which reduces stress and probably provides a greater sense of certainty about life.”

Translation: People who have more money are bigger dicks and think its all about them.

Next Quote “There is some evidence that qualities of ‘jerkiness’ can help people become more financially successful, and probably there are some qualities like aggression, ruthlessness and a lack of empathy that contribute to one’s ability to accumulate wealth.”

Translation: Nice people finish last, you have to be a fuck face to make it in this world. If you want to be rich, sell your soul and stab people in the back.

Quote from Paul Piff Graduate Student at UC Berkely “They prioritize themselves,” Piff said. “They’re less oriented to what other people are doing, and they’re seeming to perceive the law as potentially not applicable. It seems the more they have, the more attuned they become to their own wishes and desires.”

Translation: Me me me, fuck everybody else, I’m rich and can do what I want.

If you read through the article you will find that an experiment was conducted outside the lab that measured traffic violations based on the “status” of your car.
