Yes, that's true, but in the end they lose anyway because they can only steal after somebody has created. The act of stealing destroys the value they try to steal. Only a few of them can grab much. Like other parasites, if they destroy the host, they destroy themselves. < Their anger does concern me because their mob mentality can easily lead to stealing what they don't have from those that have earned it. >
It's a long, grinding, at times exceedingly cruel process, but in the end, nature wins and the long road to increasing intelligence succeeds and the low quality is removed from the gene pool. That's why we have the big bulge over our eyebrows.
The mob mentality of Mao, Pol Pot, Adolf and Stalin led to vast murder, but overall, on average, it's the evil-doers who get the worst of it. They turn on themselves as much as anyone.
After they have robbed the shops in their areas, the shops won't reopen and they'll starve to death. Look at North Korea - apparently starvation is on the cards. There is only a certain amount of opm to steal. Metacomet is obviously on the public teat and as in Greece, when the opm runs out, and MC has to get a real job more suited to their talents, it's unnerving and makes them angry.
It's actually quite nice to have the end of the game coming up quickly. Bring it on. No more opm. No more bail-outs. No more "shovel-ready stimulus-spending" to cronies who don't actually have shovels.
