Question 2 Thoughts on Humanity

Personally, in my opinion, people are self-centered. I mean people care about other people, but when it comes down to the end they think about themselves first and what's going to better themselves. Like in The Most Dangerous Game, Rainsford only cares about himself, an example of that would be that he shot the animals and didn't care because it pleased him. In the Cask of Amontillado, Fortunado baries a person alive, because he does't like him so he is putting himself first just because of a silly thing. In that case I do believe people put themselves first.In my personal life, in elementry school this girl stole this eraser type thing from this girl, because she wanted the eraser. She never admitted that she stole it, she just said that she bought one just like it even though it was the exact same one that the other girl had. So she put herself first and took that eraser even though we all kew it wasn't hers. People usually put themselves first even if they have to lie about it.
