Seems as predictable a matter as the results from following exactly a recipe for apple pie (dough is dough.)
Greed.. especially when noted early-on in the sort of vicious brat who maims animals and steals other kids' lunch money; surely deepest among deep-personal-flaws: greed is the equivalent of Brer Rabbit's Tar Baby, the stickiest pheromone yet -- for all those other hateful Me-Me-Me idiocies of homo-saps:
Narcissism, sanctimony (as inevitably == intolerance), Puritanism-towards-others and, underlying all the rest: the massive hypocrisy as one's incessant Bolero beat . . . accompaniment in all activities (lately termed, Farmily Valuez.)
Just read a few issues of Human Events [a rag unChanged since my Gramma's eons-ago sweaty thumbing of each issue] - to plumb the spinoffs of simply, a basic lifetime greed obsession. In this compact compilation are the buzz words for making it-all seem to be about Freedom! Truth and the Murican Waay. The stuff of the Limbaughs and O'Reillys and other sub-species displaying early arrested-growth.
(Next, wash your hands!! and listen to some Bach to clear out the mind-cache toxin 'cookies' embedded!)
