At the start of the novel, Ponyboy's view of the Socs is negative. He believes that the Socs catch all the breaks because they have money..... that they attack the Greasers and instigate trouble simply because they're bored.

We're poorer than the Socs and the middle class. I reckon we're wilder, too. Not like the Socs, who jump greasers and wreck houses and throw beer blasts for kicks, and get editorials in the paper for being a public disgrace one day and an asset to society the next.
