"As people get richer, they are more likely to feel entitled, to exploit
others, and to cheat. That extends to politics too"

Via Muse, who added:

"We all like cheap goods. It means we can afford a more lavish
lifestyle. However, someone somewhere often pays the price for Western
entitlement. Big companies will try to hide their exploitation. But if
something is too cheap to be true, no doubt someone somewhere is being
exploited."
