Results Are In: Greed Class Might be Lying

 We needed a scientific study to prove this?

In seven separate studies conducted on the UC Berkeley campus, in the San Francisco Bay Area and nationwide, UC Berkeley researchers consistently found that upper-class participants were more likely to lie and cheat when gambling or negotiating; cut people off when driving, and endorse unethical behavior in the workplace.
Remember that every time you hear anyone say those big bad government regulations are hurting the economy, that what they're really saying is they want the referees off the field so they can cheat. So that brings us to the Quote of the Day:

If we're looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power.
