Karmic Law and the Tea Party<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The founding of the Tea Party explains the different ways Democrats and Republicans understand the Liberty\/oppression and Fairness\/cheating principles of Jonathan Haidt’s moral foundation<\/a> theory. It began with a man named Rick Santelli, who went to the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 2009 and suggested that we shouldn\u2019t be paying for our neighbors\u2019 bad mortgages or giving anyone government handouts. Commentators on the left didn\u2019t take Santelli seriously because his argument was to the right of the mainstream Republican party. They didn\u2019t understand that he was arguing for the law of karma<\/a> (karmic law). <\/em>Karma relates directly to the Fairness\/cheating and Liberty\/oppression principles. As Santelli argued, when people manage their finances poorly, it is only karmically fair<\/em> that they have less money. Similarly, when a group of people feel oppressed, and rise up successfully against their oppressor, they are delivering karmic justice on behalf of liberty<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Karmic Experiment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One experiment on cooperation makes the link between karmic law and liberty and fairness clear.<\/em> Economists Ernst Fehr and Simon G\u00e4cheter asked students to play a game of \u201cpublic goods\u201d that consists of 12 rounds. In this game, you\u2019re placed in a group of four and you each get 20 money tokens for each round. You can keep your tokens or \u201cinvest\u201d in a communal pot. After every round, the tokens in the communal pot are multiplied by 1.6 and distributed evenly among the four players. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If everyone contributes all their tokens to the pot every round, everyone makes money. However, you make the most money if you hold all of your tokens but everyone else invests. On the other hand, if you contribute but no one else does, you lose a lot of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No one knows who is in their group, and after every round, the groups are scrambled. The right choice is clear\u2014everyone should just hold their tokens, as there\u2019s much more risk to putting the tokens in. At the beginning of the game, people contributed an average of about 10 tokens. However, as the game wore on and some people got burned for contributing more than others in their group, contributions went steadily down. Cooperation declined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, after the sixth round of the game, players found out that they could punish <\/em>other players. They could pay one token to take three away from another. The right answer in this case is even more obvious\u2014don\u2019t pay to punish, because after every round Fehr and G\u00e4cheter mix the players up, meaning you don\u2019t get the benefit of dissuading your partners from acting selfishly in future rounds and you may well lose tokens yourself. However, 84% of participants paid to punish. Additionally, cooperation skyrocketed for fear of punishment. After 12 rounds, the average contribution was 15 tokens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This experiment prompts questions\u2014why did people pay to punish? Why did cooperation go up?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • People paid to punish because it felt good. When people take without giving back, we inherently want justice, or karma, to be served. This was Santelli\u2019s argument\u2014he was referring to the conservative argument about <\/strong>proportional <\/em><\/strong>Fairness.<\/strong><\/li>
  • Cooperation ticked up because people were afraid of punishment. They acted better when that threat existed. This experiment proves that Glaucon, the Greek philosopher from Plato\u2019s Republic,<\/em> was right\u2014people do care more about the appearance of morality than actual morality. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    We can conclude from this data that egalitarianism exists in society more because of fear and hatred of domination and punishment than appreciation for equality. This proved to Haidt that he needed to add a receptor about liberty and fear of domination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Fairness and Proportionality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The Fairness foundation supports both anger at people who cheat you out of money or possessions directly and anger at people who are leeches on society as a whole. In a large, industrialized society, \u201ccheats\u201d and \u201cleeches\u201d are mostly people who consistently rely on the social safety net, or the people who Santelli argued deserved to be punished. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Fairness\/cheating principle is thus based on proportionality and karmic law rather than equality<\/strong>, and it\u2019s mostly conservatives\u2019 domain. Everyone cares about proportionality to an extent, but conservatives care much more. Liberals are concerned about the retributive aspect of karmic law much more than conservatives, and, for example, feel uncomfortable with long jail sentences for non-violent crimes. This is because this sort of punishment interferes with the Care\/harm principle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
