I rather believve the Sheep-theory :
Mostr of all people are just sheep. They want no harm, just stand there and eat and feel good.
The evil ones are the wolves, and the shepherd hounds are the policemen.
According to your theory, something like the German volunteering firemen would not be possible, because no-one would want to do similar good deeds - and that all of the time. For the society as a whole.
