The status quo herd inadvertently does more harm than good. The status quo herd, by definition, is made up of individuals who are very comfortable with being average.
There is nothing wrong with that until you realize that members of the status quo herd do not want anyone else to rise above average. The status quo herd is similar to a bucket of crabs. When one crab tries to climb out of the bucket in an attempt to better himself, the other crabs will pull him back down.
