  1. Ya gotta see outside the bucket to know you're in a bucket. But every time you try to raise your head, one of your fellow crabs pulls you back in, trying to climb over you, and you present a tempting ladder to a loser.

  2. You just never know. These kids have very strong tribal instinct and they've had teamwork and collaborative work drilled into them. They've also been taught to be good socialists. It can work if they can extend their notion of family to a larger clan, and gobble up all the clever curmudgeons with survival on their minds, doing things "the right way." They're more followers than leaders, but that's true of every generation. In a pinch, they'll latch on to someone who knows what they're doing and prosper, or rather, IF they latch on to someone who knows what they're doing, they'll prosper. We're pretty clever monkeys, with a deep understanding that there is strength in numbers. Why do you think mass formation psychosis still takes us over so easily, even when a good 1/3 or 1/4 of us know it ain't right? Stupid people are very smart about conforming to what they perceive as the winning team. That perception can create a winning team of sorts.
