Nobody is taking the high ground. In fact, the general attitude is "GTFO of my so I can make my money..."
Everyone gets to sit in the front of the roller coaster. We all patiently wait our turn until your ride is over before getting a turn. Now some people want to take two extra rides. When everyone behind them protests, they call us selfish even though the only reason they got to the front of the line as fast as they did is because everyone ahead of them only took one ride. Then they gaslight everyone and say we all will get three rides too, but that's a lie. We all still only get 1 ride. They are the only one getting three.
