    No.

    Don't know how you could come to that conclusion.

    What I meant was, people who _do_ obey moral and ethical precepts are
    often at a disadvantage in the power structure.

    And those who don't are rewarded.

    Time, don't you think, for some reparation? That is, time, don't you
    think, that people _don't_ get away with it?
