Questo libro prova a raccontarla meglio per far capire che sarebbe nell'interesse di tutti, ricchi compresi.

American democracy depends on united support by the largest economic class in the nation—the middle class. But this class faces a crisis of internal division, threatening America’s future. If conflict continues to worsen, it could lead to violence, threatening democracy itself. Since the 1980s, the upper middle class—the affluent group just below the top one percent—has reaped far more benefit from economic growth than the rest of the class. This division has provoked anger among those without the opportunity to move up.

In The Psychology of Victimhood, Kevin L. Whitworth delivers a bold cultural diagnosis of how grievance, resentment, and envy have been transformed into moral currency in the modern age.
