Maybe I have a slanted view of some outlier assholes with "The Right"(tm) pedigree, but I came to a conclusion reluctantly that they believed the world owed because they were special and deserving. This included making a killing on services delivered by outsourced foreign workers and restructuring local commodity markets in Africa to enrich themselves first while ignoring externalities such as lower profits for farmers and the preferences of buyers and sellers to make the trade platform useful to them.
