Yes, yes, blame the other crabs in the bucket. That’s the way to the top, for sure.

The only thing at stake is your happiness.

If only. You're living a very blessed existence if happiness is the only thing you have to worry about.

Gluttony and materialism, I'd say. We all could have rich and wonderful lives. A few percent of us want more. And they try to make the rest think that that's the right thing to do for everyone, even if that's technically impossible.

I'm pretty sure that's the root of all evil. You are welcome.
