White wealthy elites identified with both political parties in the US prefer fascism over democracy because the biggest "problem" they encounter in their daily lives is they think they could make even more money if they were allowed to hurt people.@gwynnion
So the thing is, the whole convinced they're genuises is basically a reinforcement counterbalance to a simple question everyone asks at some point that doesn't have any pleasant answers.Why am I rich, and that person is not.
Luck, systemic factors, I am not that rich, racism, parentage, innate skills, innate intelligence, hard work- the short list.
As the disparity grows between 'I can't get the newest version without going outside my budget this week's and 'need shelter', well...

A fair number aren't even that interested in if they are sure it makes them more money ( unless it makes them a lot- but most aren't looking at huge margins). They are actually just interested in effectively being gentry and having innate deference.I wish I was incorrect here. They just want the 'oh you go ahead sir/ma'am', even if they graciously refuse to do it. Social capital and superiority.
