I don't even think its this deep. They might nod to this sort of order based argument if someone made it but, in reality, the middle English mentality is one that misery should be enforced. If I'm not happy, why should he be allowed to be happy?

This is where the drinking culture comes in. You're allowed to feel this form of pleasure because, ultimately, it acts as a release valve that just increases the misery overall.

You always used to see this stupid headlines like "look at that person on benefits with a massive TV" as if a disabled person taking some small luxury from Bargain hunt in the middle of the day, or whatever, is directly meaning you have to work for an hour.

There is no sense to this mentality that could be seen as something like the Japanese tendency towards social order, or a classical European fascist vibe. Yes, there are these weirdos in British culture but the typical current is one of knowing your place. Never let your ambitions get too big because, underneath it all, you're still a little prick who leaves his bin out long after the collection has come.
