The good news they are tractable: put them in a context in which there is social pressure of some sort to behave like a full human, and they do respond with greater generosity, and moderate their natural piggishness.
The bad news is their very wealth increasingly allows them to squeeze out those contrarian elements in life: neighbors worse off then than them (by gating their communities); church (WTF actually takes Jesus's words to their core? even if they do go. He ate with criminals.) family members who disagree (average distance between family members has increased ten-fold over the last thirty years); and our gvt tax structure.
Choose more time and less money: make and/or grow your own food, and skip the rat shit and waitress spit.
