Let's stop at the word “blame,” because what comes before it is shame. When you feel shamed, and this is true for all of us, it's an extremely painful feeling to feel. I think pride and shame are kind of the skin of the self, our picture of how others see us. People who had suffered a kind of economic crash, but who were highly proud people, were in what I came to call a a pride paradox. So before we get to blame, you have to see why people need to do any blaming and how they get enticed to blame others.
