Good point. As the DeutschMark (or was it Reich Mark at the time?) Fell in value it radicalized people fairly quickly.
Of course they were a society of haves that became have nots. Does this rule apply to historical have nots, who in a real sense have never been "haves"?
Stake in society could be acheived through more transparent democratic procedure?
I tend to think democracy and stability are linked to the size, tempermant and beliefs of the middle class, perhaps in the end it does all boil down to butter.
