cure sociopathy by bringing kids up better? Maybe we should have people take a test before they are allowed to have kids? I think that is the answer to this. First of all social norms/morality/what we feel is bad or good comes from how we were raised and what we were exposed too.
I am not sure what person you are referring to, that you think is a sociopath and is in a position of power...I would assume that they are only considered a sociopath by you and have not exhibited 3 of traits in group A. I would say a lot may fall into 1 or 2 of the above. But I think most people are a little antisocial after all America is full of "individuals". We are always rationalizing when we hurt someones feelings, otherwise I am not sure how people sleep at night. Gees I didn't hold open the elevator door for the women with the cane, because I was late for work. I do not think this makes me a sociopath next to the person that does something worse.
