    I'm reading "Outliers" right now, which makes the point that low-income people are more likely to defer to authority and hesitate to assert their rights and desires. Which makes sense, but I wanted to throw it across the room when the chapter suddenly ended, without the plainly obvious explanation that low-income people live by authority because authority won't hesitate to ruin anyone they can who fails to lick their boot for even a moment.
