Economists,
ethicists and business sages persuade us that honesty is the best
policy, but their evidence is weak. We hoped to find data that
would support their theories and thus, perhaps encourage higher
standards of business behavior. To our surprise, our per theories
failed to stand up. Treachery, we found, can pay. There is no
compelling economic reason to tell the truth or keep one’s word
punishment for the treacherous in the real world is neither swift
nor sure.
Honesty is, in fact primarily
a moral choice. Business people do tell themselves that, in the
long run, they will do well by doing good. But there is little
factual or logical basis for this conviction. Without values,
without a basic preference for right over wrong, trust based on
such self-delusion would crumble in the face of temptation. Most
of us choose virtue because we want to believe in ourselves and
have other’ respect and belief in us.
And for this, we should be
happy. We can be proud of a system in which people are hones
because they want to be, not because they have to be. Materially,
too, trust based on morality provides great advantages. It allows
us to join in great and exciting enterprises that we could never
undertake if we relied on economic incentives alone.
Economists
tell us that trust is enforced in the market place through
retaliation of reputation. If you violate a trust your victim is
apt to seek revenge and other are likely to stop doing business
with you, at least under favorable terms. A man or woman with a
reputation for fair dealing will prosper. Therefore, sound
maximizes are honest. This sounds plausible enough until you look
for concrete examples. Eases that apparently demonstrate the awful
consequences of trust turns out to be few and weak, while evidence
that treachery can pay seems compelling.
