How Money Made Us Narcissists, Even Psychopaths. The narcissists and psychopaths broke out of the asylum! The inmates are in charge now!

Up until the early Renaissance, trading and craftsmanship were the only forms of business. Finance in its modern rudiments was added later.

The industrial revolution coupled with puritan Protestantism gave rise to a class of grandiose, entitled, egotistical, and often antisocial practitioners in banking, finance, and manufacturing.

Society walled these people off, partitioned and firewalled their communities and activities, and regarded them as somewhat unwholesome. It kept them and their pernicious impact away from the provision of public, familial, or communal goods such as education, entertainment, medicine, health, and law enforcement.

In the second half of the 20th century as millennia old institutions such as the family crumbled, these activities were outsourced to the private sector ("privatization") and became big enterprises. The values and ethos of the business and finance enclaves now infested and permeated every single societal and cultural dimension. We became a civilization founded on egregious narcissism and psychopathic values that infuse the marketplace.
