>However, you are in a sense dictating that the moral values you inherited are infinitely more superior than all the others. I mean you are making deterministic statements about subjective issues while calling those who dare not agree "unreasonable" without considering for a second that other people that live in other parts of the world might have different views.
There is virtually no moral judgment that every person will agree on. So what? Just because morality is ultimately subjective, society should completely avoid making any kind of judgments regarding it? Frankly I don't care that every person, including those committing terrible acts, view themselves as morally correct. I have my own values that I obviously believe are superior, and I will make an effort to impose them on society. I assume that everyone else is doing the same thing. I hope that the "best" views will become the most common.
I would gladly pay an 80k premium to go to a more prestigious school if I had to choose. I'd bet that the increased lifetime earnings due to a better resume and better education would easily surpass 80k.
There have been numerous studies showing how even extremely subtle things can influence people's perception. If you specifically asked someone "would you be willing to pay more for a good if you see unrelated expensive goods in the background?" Most people would say of course not. And yet studies show that the average person actually would be willing to pay more.
I'd be shocked if something as blatantly obvious as height would have no impact on someone's perceived authority. Anecdotally, I can say that I find it much more natural to act as a leader around people who are shorter than me.
The funniest comment I have read on this website.
