Hrmmm, you've used the phrase "your morals are fundamentally flawed"
before to describe your opinion of the morals of people who think it
is ok to pull the price tags off merchandise to try to get a lower
price. I think you also mentioned something about not wanting to do
business with that type of person.
Not trying to suggest that these two examples are even remotely
similar, but do you see this "self-sacrifice" flaw as being an
essentially wrong thing or just a misguided thing? I guess that would
depend on how much power the person who was flawed had to inflict that
flawed view on others...

Hrmmm.
