4 types of people in a society @ Niti Shataka verse 64

Eke sat-purushah parartha ghatakah svarthan partiyajya
ye samanyastu pararthamudyamabhritah svarthavirodhena ye
te'mi manava - rakshah parahitam svarthaya nighnanti ye
ye tu ghnanti nirarthakam parahitam te ke na janimahe

1st type - sat-purushah - Always a minority,good people who are devoted to thee welfare of others,forsaking their own interest

2nd -samanyah -the Majourity - Devoted to the welfare of others,but unlike the first,without sacrificing their own self interest 

3rd - manava rakshah - human demons - Destroy others for their own self interest

4th - Cant be placed in human category - Destroy others even without gaining any advantage from those acts

Swamy Ranganathananda says 

" When we stress ethical values in a changing society,we mean retaining the 1st type intact,
vastly increasing the 2nd type ,
 reducing the 3rd to minimum &
 eliminating the 4th  "
