So theoretically then they would be more level headed employees, and might not have as strong inclination to harm others with their seeking of SES. e.g. the reward stimulus of money is lessened so the negative externality of harm is a stronger counterbalance?

We read the same article. I interpret less reaction to rewards as being more appreciative. It’s deep, but hear me out. Less reaction means they (and myself included once) have the same expectation as the ones giving the reward, it being an equilibrium. Because the rewards match the expectation over a longer period of time, that’s why they (again, from personal experience) stay hungry for a longer period of time. It will take much longer for a smart poor person to really think they’ve made it to the other side permanently.

What? No I did not.

I am saying give the same opportunities to people from lesser social backgrounds. They will not disappoint.
