People can establish a sense of
ownership in an incredibly short time. Like, you get on the bus and
walk past everybody to an empty seat and get settled in, then at the
very next stop you look up at a boarding passenger and think to
yourself, “Who's this new guy on my bus?” That's your inner two
year old, the one who just learned the word “mine.” The same part
of the brain creates ideas like, “This was always a Jewish
neighborhood, now it's all Colored,” or “How come there's so many
Mexicans in Texas?”
