And because suckers believe they too can be rich someday. And because they just don't get how far from the next 9% let alone the 1% they really are. And because the Puritans believed that having more material wealth meant God loved you more than he did your brother or sister. And because they think in dichotomies, so if I'm not rich, I'm poor, so God mustn't be pleased with me. And poor people are, well, not like they believe themselves to be. Poor is a dirty word. I'd say, a 4-letter word, but then so is rich...
Suckers is a generous label. Stupid is what I'd use.
