Is it a logical assumption that American right wingers are more likely to welch on their bets? Does the worship of self-interest explicit in this philosophy make them believe that a failure to abide by personal obligations is morally justified?
Originally posted by no1marauderI think you're making a mountain out of a molehill here. "...failure to abide by personal obligations is morally justified" is, well, over the top.
