vanity & guilt? [some of the guilt unfair to themselves]
do the plunderers, recognising on some repressed level that they are overpaid & plunderers, project their vices on to the plundered as a way of dealing with guilt, & of flattering their vanity?
do they project virtues onto the biggest plunderers for similar reasons?
the persistence of accusations of the robbed poor breeding like rabbits, irresponsible, making poor choices, incompetence, produce nothing, lazy, lacking goals, afraid of taking risks, settling for less, using poverty as an excuse, not using their talents, lacking marketing acumen, fewer talents & ideas, unpersevering - are all these projection? do ppl feel bad about themselves, think they are inferior bc others 'made' [raked] more money? do they think that others 'made' more money bc they were more virtuous, disiplined?
