In 2012, Berkley psychologists ran several studies looking at whether social class (as measured by wealth, occupational prestige, and education) influences how much we care about the feelings of others. These studies found that wealthy people were more likely to have unethical behavior.

Another 2012 study found that people in a higher economic class had less compassion towards their fellow man than people with lesser means.

It has been studied and written about for years. The ultra-wealthy often acts in immoral, unethical behavior, and selfish behavior.

What happens when these same ultra-wealthy people can make the laws that govern a state? Not through running for office but by buying off the politicians who are in office. And what happens to a state where this type of unfettered corruption goes on for decades?

The ability of the ultra-wealthy to buy off politicians and influence legislation has led to unfettered corruption in Texas. Hundreds of millionaires and billionaires pour mountains of cash into Texas elections each cycle. Let’s talk about some of the worst and what their agendas are.

3. I wasn't surprised to see at least one of the Wilks brothers in that list.

Years ago they started buying up available property in Idaho. The signs and gates closing historic public access to and through public lands came next. I doubt Idaho is the only victim of their pursuit of a dominionist paradise.
