It's not as deep as that. When I ask people if they really want to live in the equivalent of the worst of India, with people washing in the streets, outrageously poor and uneducated, while they drive by in a limo with security to their gated towers, they shrug.

It's really just the natural extension of the "I vote with only my wallet in mind" approach to life.
