There may be a real finding here: If you perceive yourself as rich, you act more confidently, other things being equal.
However, behaving more confidently does not necessarily make you less ethical. This work is constructing false ethical standards, and then "crying wolf" when people don't reach them. For instance:
(a) There is no moral reason that one person should go through the crosswalk before the other. One has to go through before the other. (I hate the feeling of making cars stop for me because it wastes the car's momentum.)
(b) If a moderator tells you that you can eat the candy, presumably there is surplus candy. Otherwise, they wouldn't tell you that you could eat it! Unless they're a dick. That lady did not come off as being a dick.
Frankly, there are lots of highly ethical and highly unethical people across all "class" boundaries. I know that from personal experience and observation.
I could keep going, but hopefully I've given some evidence that this video is not science. It's blatantly irrational. Maybe the paper is better than the video, but I'd be surprised.
