Level Two: Bad is what hurts me!

By about here, people learn about good and bad. And they'll do to others what they don't want others to do back to them in the future, and do favours as long as there's a good chance they'll be returned. Lending money is a-okay as long as it's replayed!

In short, anything good to me is good, and that hurts me is bad.

Can you relate to that moral code? If you can, chances are you're a selfish ***hole! Oh, and most of the rest of mankind probably hates your guts too!

I'm sure most of the rest of us can think of someone like this. They're the kind of people that would steal anything that wasn't nailed to the floor if they thought they could get away with it. Drop something on the ground, and if they think there'll be no consequences they'll pocket it; even if they know who it belongs too. The only thing that stops them from errupting into an orgy of drunken sex for the rest of their lives is the fact they probably wouldn't get away with it. These people use and abuse.

To these people, the greater good, and the needs of others, is something they just can't understand.

And to make the whole thing worse, they can't really understand higher level moral (yet still immoral) codes like sheep mentality, unquestioning loyalty to the law, or rebellion out of self discovery. The only reason Authoritarian Conservatives are still in business is to keep these moral degenerates in check!

So just imagine building an economic system based on this lowest common denominator morality? Well guess what; there is. And it's called Capitalism.

Meet Capitalism: Social Immorality with a golden arches smile
...and coming soon to a 3rd world country near you!

Screw the good of society, screw the good of the economy, or the environment, when there's a dollar to be made! When you think about level 2 morality, it's in its most basic form in corporations (profits = good, losses = bad... larger principles? What's that?!). Seriously, when I see a pop music loving level 3 who lap teenie bopper, or hear stories of 3rd world exploitation, I don't know who to be angrier with: the moral degenerates who think it's A-okay to shill the exploitation of others, culture, or society for a quick buck; or the degenerate level 3 morons it up!

Capitalism is Feudalism in new clothes...
True Story
Some people like to delude themselves, and say that in a Capitalist society, the best rise to the top. I say, what about Lachlan Murdoch?
And perhaps the lowest of the low are in marketing. Constantly on the look-out for new ways that wealthy level 2 morons can exploit people, especially level 3 morons, for a profit.

[You actually think Capitalism is moral?]
"Sure! And greed is good!" *BANG*
