What difference does it make? I assume that in your mind economic motivations are less desirable than ideological motivations? I have no reason to believe that one is better than the other.

And why do you believe plebes are the ones targeted for hearing the story? (When I was a plebe, I was not told this story.)

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
