The impunity of the majority economic

Belonging to most is more economical and produces less guilt.

We can simplify the ideas and say that there are at least two ways to manage ourselves:

a) Earn enough to cover all necessary expenses, and

b) Save enough for the little or much money we have available to us.

The vast majority of people use the procedure b) (subordinate satisfaction of the needs and desires within existing resources).

Almost (I said "almost") all mankind thinks that "the majority are not wrong."

What actually happens is that the mass errors are hidden better (impunity) that individual errors as wrong them spontaneously agree that

- "Not so serious stuff into the country some contraband" (any of us), or

- 'Invade another country on the grounds that' they had it coming '"(United States, England, France, etc..) Or

- Killing millions of people in defense of some higher cause (Nazis, Stalinists, Maoists, Turks).

In short, almost all of humanity wants to belong to the majority because that way you can believe that he is right, he has the truth, which is normal and more allies has more power.

These advantages of integrating a majority (mass), it adds a wonderful invention capitalism did centuries ago and still called economy of scale.

It happens that the same product, manufactured in large quantities, reduces their costs.

For this to work, a majority of people must accept that product.

For this reason, those with the tastes and preferences of most live on less money, they have to work less work, they can save and allowed the inclusion in the group b) mentioned at the beginning (live with what you get instead of getting whatever was necessary).
