"Friends (Quakers) "
The Quakers have always been known to take u the slack when society fails, notably in Ireland during the Famine, when the British Government closed the workhouses and adopted a laissez faire policy of selling famine relief to the starving at market prices.
Had it not been for the Quakers, the death toll would have been much higher.

Why do the rich want more - because that's how our society is organised.
If companies don't expand, they die.

In my experience, most working people are just like that - though some accepted the Thatcher ethic and allowed their homes to be turned into gambling chips for the housing market - no need to mention the result.
