The post that was quoted here has been removedI think there are two things going on here. The first is a sense of entitlement. The second is from the Five Factor Model of personality. The trait that predicts criminality is agreeableness, agreeable people tend to include other people's interests in their calculations. Disagreeable people look out for number one. So the predictor of criminality in the Five Factor Model is low agreeableness. This is a trait that helps in business, agreeable people tend to end up overworked - they take on too much - and in the supporting role.
The post that was quoted here has been removedMany (thought obviously not all) rich people grew up in an environment of privilege. Family money and connections with powerful people give them a head start to good schools, good paying jobs, start up money for business ventures, and the best legal representation money can buy. This environment nurtures a sense of superiority, and a mindset that they are owed things that common citizens are not.
The post that was quoted here has been removedI certainly agree with that last sentence.
I don’t about corruption and unethical behavior having anything to do with class; as in it being inherent behavioural traits.
I do think that people in lower social classes, will exhibit more of certain behaviours.
And people from the entitled classes will be more open to corruption. They have powerful friends and powerful people who help them in their careers will want something in return. So that will be an issue.

@sonhouse saidI thought that was Farage, or is it now anyone whose politics you don't agree with is a russian spy or whatever. Johnson's Brexit deal is hardly a Brexit of any description so it's hard to see what the Russians are supposedly getting out of it.
@Wajoma
Now revealed Johnson has ties to Putin. Gee, I wonder just WHO will benefit the most from Brexit or any other exit in the EU?
sonhouse politicians are the least trusted proffession, Jo Swinson has become a staunch remainer to the extent that she wishes to completely iignore the referendum, now we see that her husband has interests in farms that have received thousands of pounds from the EU.
Don't be one eyed.
