#1 The "vulture elite", as you call them, already have theirs. Their goal is to remain on top while everybody else is forced to grovel for every little morsel they can scavenge.

#2 It is an old-world mindset that wealth is not enjoyable unless it is surrounded by poverty and squalor.

Please note that major economic and political conferences are only rarely held in high-security palaces in the country. Instead, the conferees want to hold their meetings where they can look out the elevated windows and see peasant protesters being beaten back by police forces.

Even on holiday, the "Euro-trash" prefer places like Acapulco, Mexico, with five-star resorts on one side of the fence, and literally, starving peons on the other side.

It is a sickness of the soul.
