s/o Skittles

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=how-wealth-reduces-compassion

The gist of the article is that the wealthy are more likely to behave like greedy assholes than the non-wealthy.  
  
My favorite part is where the wealthy were literally more likely to take candy away from children.

    You don't understand the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch / think he's fug / don't know who he is? WATCH SHERLOCK.  Until you do, your negative opinion of him will not be taken seriously.

  • I have a serious question.


    If I take DD trick or treating but I eat the candy am I in fact stealing from her? 
    Only if you're wearing a ski mask.. Otherwise it's totally not stealing. I am fully prepared to eat my kids Halloween candy

    OP. Your name is really close to the name of a super troll from back in the day. Are you guys related by any chance?
    Yikes.  No relation to any troll, super or regular-sized.  Just a long time lurker--but either not observant enough or here long enough to know who you're talking about.

    ETA:  my screen name=kids just watched The Little Mermaid and I love the sea witch, plus I also love Ursula K. Leguin.  
  • So, apparently there are people who don't feel compassion after watching a video about children with cancer.

    Jesus Fucking Christ.

    Reading those WORDS makes me tear up a little.

    Yep.  I was already stunned by the heartlessness after watching Inside Job, but this takes it to a new level.
