[quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm not the PP, but by the tone of the answer, I would suggest that it's an "end justifies the means" scenario. One would hope that society has moved beyond the type of social pathology described (I won't say "espoused" as he drew a distinction between public and private morality) by Machiavelli almost 500 years ago, but of course that would be naive. [/quote] Are we living in the same country and century? Ivy League graduates from the banks of the Potomac working on Wall Street worship this Machiavellian doctrine: "end justifies the means". Do you think this is why the global financial empire is on an ICU death bed in need of resuscitation and our country is on the brink of bankrupcy? What's different today than 500 years ago? The rich get richer (and go to elite private schools) and the poor get poorer. It's not the poor running Wall Street and our government![/quote]
