Analect response

The analect i chose was "Book III. 16          The Master said, “The gentleman understands what is moral, the small man understands what is profitable.” This analect is quite useful for poloticians today. It would provide them feedback on how the public would view them for making decisions in the economy. A politician who made a moral decision over money would be seen as maybe amiable to the public. A politician who makes a decision for a profit would be seen as a selfish man, not worried about the people. It is obscure because a profit could benefit the public, but still it is good feedback.
