Self-Interest

To understand incentives, study self-interest.

Every human plays the game.

Those playing it in the short term are called selfish.

Those playing it in the medium term are called manipulative.

Those playing it in the long term are called enlightened.

Study self-interest, and you will understand how the world works.
