[quote][b]One of the most important things to note about psychopathic individuals is that rarely see a difference between people and objects.

  • Yeah there is a correlation there. IT sort of makes sense. Corporate leaders have to make their bosses and some of their underlings like them, be ruthless when it comes to making decisions that can ruin a competitor or fire employees. Sociopaths/psychopaths are pretty much ready built to do all those things. They are manipulative and want to seem normal so they pretend to be the sort of person people like or will get behind, they don't care of they piss people off, or ruin them or condemn them to poverty. Its a kind of a sad fact, but a competitive environment is the perfect place for someone who has a desperate desire to get ahead at the expense of others. It makes sense there is a lot of potential ASPD there. I also read though, that when analyzing the management who were sociopaths, they were found to be bad managers. They lied an manipulated to get to and stay at their position, but generally sucked at their job. So a merit based system, instead of a social connection and personality based system would take care of most of those problems.
