Interesting news of a study by psychologists proving scientifically what is fairly obvious from a gut feeling: rich people are self-obsessed, selfish bastards:

Rich people are: "less empathetic, less altruistic and generally more selfish' as a result of having so much money."

They have "an ideology of self interest and more likely to think about themselves whereas those less well off were more likely to help others."

"Lower class people just show more empathy, more prosocial behavior, more compassion, no matter how you look at it."
