> Some people are constantly bad even though they know they will have to answer for their actions. So you say. I'm much more inclined to believe they believe they'll get away with it. > Some people are bad and don't want to be and it is a struggle. Sure, but that's almost exclusively due to mental illness, not "rationality". > Some people just do what they need to to survive, for whatever survival means to them at any given time. Survival is reinforcement. > Some people test the limits of their, and societal, boundaries. Mostly because closer to the limit means more reinforcement. Simple risk/reward. I want to think that being good is non-religiously rewarded (ie. in this life), but I'm not entirely sure that's true. I think it takes effort not to take unethical shortcuts or make profitable but hurtful decisions.
