Are people selfish?

[Philosophy Explorer]

I don't believe in a wholly altruistic act. I believe any act has strings attached (btw one of my economics teachers said the same thing).

Unsurprising an economist would echo that view.

You have a rather bleak view of the world this evening, Phil. Anything in particular bugging you?

Anyways, nothing wrong with looking out for oneself. No one else is going to do it in the long run.
