7. They really do think that
The neocon types. I remember a discussion about school bullying, a year or two ago, and the one gal got on, a tv spot maybe, and went on about how bullying is natural. It's part of the pecking order, and that, some kids ARE better than others, and that it's how it's going to be later...so there's no reason for it not to start in school. That later in life, her type of kid would be your kids boss, naturally superior, and there was no reason to pretend they are equal.

She was happy with that thought, had no problem with it. She really thought that; her kids are better than yours, and if they pick on your kids in school, your kids deserve it. And will continue to deserve it. As a class, in general, our betters will STAY our "betters". Better being more wealthy. We're to admire them for sending their children to public school. Really. They think that.

I don't know how many other people think like that. I know I don't know too many personally. Thankfully.
