Those at the highest pinnacles of wealth and power, and those in the lowest troughs, seem to share a tendency towards indulgence of their most animalistic tendencies. From Harvey Weinstein and William Jefferson Clinton, to Kentucky meth labs and black market oxycontin.
Apparently only those in the middle, the bourgeois, Christians especially, make any effort to curtail and contain themselves.
“There’s no success like failure, and failure’s no success at all.”
