Paper thin
Reading all this, takes me back to an argument I had with a man whose 
politics were somewhere right of Genghis Khan, he was against any form of welfare, unions, any form of protection for workers and society in general etc, etc..  
I said to him what is your reason for thinking this, he said, "we are too civilized now to need all that". I picked up a piece of paper holding it between my finger and thumb, saying, "this is how thick oure veiner of civilization is". 
During this dialog a quiet Vietnamese ex boat asylum seeker was watching all this, said nothing but just nodded when I said that, I have no idea what had been through, but I know it was not good.
