RE: Why a person in pursuit of rational behavior could choose to be "good"
Is kindness manipulation? Is there any interaction which cannot be interpreted as manipulation? I'm not sure where you draw the line.
Well, I guess it's like most any action - depends on the motive. The tactic of doing something small for someone to set up a feeling of "owing", then reaping with something large, is a very well known ploy.
