feelingwise, they just don't feel they've done anything wrong. And they
will never feel that they have done anything wrong, as long as the result
has been rewarding for themselves. And they would do it again, especially
if they feel they could get away with it. It's good for them, so it's right.

That's one definition of a sociopath.

The only thing that might prevent them from repeating doing something
wrong (our definition of wrong) is the fear of punishment. Nothing else
comes even close to touching them. Prisons are full of sociopaths -- the
dumber ones. The smarter ones usually avoid getting caught.
