I'd missed that one, but yes, it is interesting, and I generally agree, to paraphrase TM, that the environment poorer folks live in the US encourages cooperation and altruism much more than the environment rich folks live in, which often feeds their individualism and selfishness.
But, of course, I've known some poor folks who were shits and some rich folks I'd nominate for sainthood. Rich people just have different obstacles to overcome.
Or, as I tell my kids, I have failed to give them one very important thing in this life: poverty. And they will have to overcome that problem with their upbringing.
