I have few illusions about the darkness of the world. You are misinterpreting what I'm saying. Solely was the key word in my post. Sure people care about profits, but there are always other considerations. Whats moral, legal, what you like/are willing to do. Even the most cold blooded people...

I respectfully disagree. Markets are moral, nothing is amoral. Not everyone is motivated by the so called incentives, whatever they may be, presumably profit, that drive the market. Otherwise there would be no change, or rules, just this fantasy free-market delusion where greed or "market...

I wouldnt call it market forces. I think its more complicated than that. "Market Forces" is a cop out, for everyone who ever said it, including Adam Smith. People make choices. Yours have been different than Armstrong's JV, and not just for purely mercenary reasons. I give you more credit than...

Landis doesnt come clean till 2010 when Lim is already gone from Garmin. Its possible Landis hadn't told Vaughters everything about Lim before that. The way I'm reading it Lim is just a guy who needs a job every now and then. Clean, dirty, whatever. Could have been clean on Garmin.

Id rather watch Oprah interview Landis for three hours

I feel like almost every answer should be followed with - not As in Oprah - "do you feel remorse?" Lance "absolutely, not"

i've had students with homework excuses that are more believable

let me call my lawyers

how many times and ways has he lied about the UCI donation?

She's asking ok questions for a non cycling person, can't make him tell the truth

Penitent is not something LA does I agree with this. Look at the case of Landis, vs Armstrong. Landis is trying to pay back people. Armstrong is trying to not have to pay back people

Maybe we can compile some here without comments. For viewing pleasure

Is she trying to say the ends justify the means. She's proud of the unethical things she's done in the past because they made her the awesome person she is today. Sounds like maybe she and Lance were a pretty good match. Maybe the problem was there wasn't enough room in all their houses for the...
