It's not so much there are so many assholes. It's that The Universe stragetically places them so we are sure to run into them on a regular. :) Until we learn what we are supposed to learn from exposure to them. Or we teach THEM what they need to learn from exposure to us. Keep in mind - we might be THE LESSON for someone else. We might be the turning point for an asshole to turn back into a Human. ;)
