Chuckle. As I've progressed through 6.5 decades I've come to the realization what matters to me is keeping it simple.

Without morals and ethics we're no better than thugs and hoodlums who prey on the weak, the old, about anyone who can be exploited.

Friday afternoon and you're making my head hurt.

I do remember something about that, not the first time and on a Friday as well – I’m going to take a look under the hood, do some forensic accounting on da ole psyche and see if there’s anything there ;).

But seriously, appreciate the authentic response (should be stickied ;). Yes, this is the interwebz (as Nitty coined so well ;) and ihub does an adequate job of moderating what that means given the context like Meta-Ethicists. Semi-respectful forum for peeps to sell their shit – products or ideas. But mostly a traders forum which is really interesting as far as morals go. With every rung up and down the ladder of awareness so goes the moral relativity – but not necessarily in a hierarchical way, depending on your tolerance levels or open mindedness (if only we all could have the insights of a MM once in a while, lol ;). Like I said bottom line is individuals will eventually figure it out if they are able and honest with themselves. Or they will just continue to pu$h their agenda for “the greater good”, lol. (edit: in my list making I could have added social democrats for balance and clarity but I did say “anyone really” ok EZ ;)

... Bull, you live in a state that has bathroom laws. Corporations that pay their principles huge bonuses after losing Billions of dollars and then leverage corporate welfare. Yeah, morals are topsy turvy.
