Today on Animal Planet

Observe the Upper Classius Socialitis. Notice their movements as they go about their daily tasks. Observe their apparent disregard for one another. This species thrives mostly on an individual basis, pausing only for casual greeting and the occasional mating. The Males and Females of the Upper Classius Socialitis species rarely tend to their own young. There are surrogate member of the Middle Classius and Lower Classius species more commonly known as "The Help" who take turns caring for the youngest of the more privileged species. They follow the Upper Classius and are occasionally eaten.
Notice how the adults of the Upper Classius get their fists stuck in the small doorways of their mansions and offices, oblivious to the simple solution leading to freedom. Instead they stay trapped with their hands tightly wound around various possessions and other vital resources. Likewise, the Middle and lower Classius (Classii?) follow their example. But are occasionally eaten.
