How come poker (texas holdem or omaha) has many angry players but few millionaires?

Is losing their money in the first place what makes these players play so aggresive so they feel they have temporarily more power then myself while at a table? Is this their drug of choice?
In your opinion how can I use this to my advantage.
If you can read a player, you can beat them.
Players who are playing with short funds, or are desperate to win, are using what is callled "scared money".
There is an old poker saying, "Scared Money never wins"
Some of these players play so agressively because they need to win, and so they take some chances that maybe they should not, and react pretty badly when they lose.

There are a lot of young players playing poker these days and many of them have big egos.
To take advantage of agressive players -> patiently wait for a strong hand and let him/her bluff his money away.
If these angry players are abusing you then try to extract information about the way they play from their insults.
eg. A player says to you "How the hell can you raise with just an A9 under the gun?"
From this you can gather that this player only plays strong hands from under the gun.
