Ah yes... This is sad but true... Although I do find myself doing many things I would not normally do, or things that are stressful to me, just for the benefit of others... Then again, one could say I do this for a long-term good, thus I am doing it for selfish reasons... Im depressed... Im going to play video games now...
I believe people should act morally for many reason, but not just for the advantage of society. I also believe that if people do act morally that is to the advantage of the entire society.
people should act morally regardless of anything.life is much easier on yourself when you are kind to others.pay it forward.
I agree. I don't think society is a moral meritocracy, that seems to be just a little too good to be true. Good points.
i agree with Travis
i agree with tally
This is true. People are selfish in all ways. Even if going to college means to make money. Good job!
I agree with Tally
Good point.
Graet paper. I think it is important to act morally. If everyone acted immorally what kind of society would we have?
I think people should act morally all the time, but their are many who act morally just so they can get a reward in return.
Good paper. Excellent use of the utopian society and what is reality. Good Job.
I also feel it is a dog-eat-dog world. Good Job!
Wonderful paper
Do all persons seek money?
Good points. Again the theme of self-interest. But what of those actions that help others, but harm oneself? Just what is the future good mentioned by Travis? Possibly to become a "better person" and thus be happier? But in what way, what does that mean? Raises interesting points.
Good points and ideas.
I don't completely agree. I know one or two people that do little more than it takes for them to survive. And they do this purposefully. It IS possible to be selfless. It just isn't a desirable prospect to the majority...
This is why I can't completely DISagree either.
your paper has some good points. even if someone believes they're acting for the overall good of society, their motives may still be, in some ways, selfish.
I agree with you, Missy. Good job!
Good paper! Nice points.
I think you hit the nail right on the head. Great Job!
Good paper. Very true. Kinda short though
I do agree with most of your points, but I think that some people help others not just in the hope that they will have a good image of them, but because it simply makes others happy around them. It is my feeling that as long as others around me are happy than I am happy.

Good paper.
I think that people, but more specifically Americans are driven by selfish, monetary motives. Good Points!
