Imagine how successful Jews could be if they voted in conservative representatives.

It sounds like one of the better definitions of ‘courage’ that I have heard.

It has been said that courage is the combination of himility and daring.... and I think that is what is going on here, too.

Now turn it around — can you think of a group that has been taught to think like this:

1) Everyone is prejudiced azgainst people like me.
2) Good thing my self-esteem is sky-high. I am the greatest.
3) Instant gratification is what its all about. Let,s get down and party.

Good points here. But I question the use of the term “superiority complex”. Not a psychologist, but I seem to recall that this term refers to an aberration, so I think the correct description should be something along the lines of “exceptional self-confidence”.

Couldn’t impulse control a result of the combo superiority complex and inferiority. I’m not good enough so I have to be careful with what I have earned during my outstanding result periods cause it may not last? Which then feeds on itself through compounding savings - financially or favors/friends socially?
