Max Weber (kind of familiar name): Poverty may breed discontent, but it is often the well-off ideological radicals who lead the charge.

This observation was also true for the about three dozen men and women of the German 'Red Army Faction' terrorists of the '70s and '80s. Perhaps two or three of them came from a 'proletarian' background, the other from 'good parents'. And many of them (too many to be explainable by chance alone given the absolutely small number of such families) came from protestant pastors' families. Which again leads to the theological roots of terrorism but I respect the wish to keep separate what sometimes in a surprising way is entangled.
