Translated...the really wealthy elites are often evil and rotten right to the very core! And, while I consider myself very fortunate to be quite well off, I have always tried to defend the underdog for just this reason. I identify with the common man far more than I identify with people of my own economic status.
some yes, I think a majority are, what do you think?
The scales might even be tipping for all we know. I can't claim to know everyone but I think what I meant by inherently good is the psychological human basic needs of human beings in general which look in my opinion to me that everyone would be inherently good having those. Of course, people make mistakes. I'd be the first to admit it too. I think at their core though, their need for love, at least, is still there. No matter how much darkness and pain one has experienced. However, I have seen hope destroyed many times. People destroy themselves without that. The mind can be a frail fickle thing.
