Considerations

Ethics and Morality
wherein Ethics emphasizes prohibitions such as the cow is a sacred animal in India and un-molestable. Ethics would be associated with Indigenous pre-Excess and Profit cultures of Necessity and Subsistence, by conviction or the simple absence of technology dictates integrity conventions.

With the introduction of Excess and Profit, requiring material resources of the natural world, Materialism as the absence of Consequence of any or all things natural, except as resource and raw material, allows for the free exercise of human volition as the exploitation of the natural world and anything deemed undeveloped.

Thus with the plunder in which exploitive materialism may asunder, a system of curtailment is required to moderate destructive excesses, which is called Morality as the prohibitive vehicle of Progressive Materialism, as well as private property.

Morality means well, however moral prohibitions are not absolute and are relative to situation and circumstance. Thou shall not kill unless in self-defence, or in war is OK. Private Property is the means of prohibiting or limiting the transformation or destruction of states and entities in the context of Progressive Materialism, and securing the right of ownership inviolate, to the possessors of material resource and manufacturers.

Who can have what ? Historically one dynasty, principality or sovereignty would steal everything not nailed down from their neighbors, and in turn have all that stolen by barbarians more barbaric. And so it still is.

Thus Morality and its evaluative measure the Progressive Evaluative System, as a scale of Consequence defines how people and entities may be treated. Undeveloped, unrefined, primitive, uneducated, natural, non-profit, socialist is at the bottom of the scale as One. Developed, refined, educated, sophisticated, wealthy, pro-profit, capitalist is at the top of the scale Ten. Homeless and Mr Microsoft. Between is lower middle, middle and upper middle.

Morality is the prohibitive vehicle of Progressive Materialism in terms of human relations, in which the Progressive Evaluative System is the vehicle in which value and consequence are assessed, and which determines how states, conditions, entities and individuals can be treated.

In terms of Capitalism as the vehicle of Excess and Profit, non-profit and socialism is of the bottom of the scale, as only preservative, and does not increase value as more, or produce something from nothing.

Morality means - the bad guys can't do bad against the good, but the good guys can do bad against the bad. Therefore things like stealing is immoral, but well in actually, just depends on who is doing it to who. In fact, it is the duty of the good to oppress the bad for a better world. Problem is, both sides think they are the good.

Ethics is Consequential Integrity which respects given conditions even though they prohibit or limit human volition, and are perhaps oppressive to the ethical individual. Ethics is also called honor and is the bed-rock of super civil society. You have my word on that.

A conscientious objector fights for neither side, for war is prohibitive as an ethical principle and standard. However the moralist will fight for the right side, which is the side one is born on. Ethics is independent of either or all sides.

The Ego which is the representative of the body, in order to protect the being from all harm and endangerment would seem best endowed with Ethics, integrity, incorruptibility, honesty, principle, probity, purity, rectitude, sincerity, virtues and candor. If the Ego begins to lie about threats to bodily safety and make small of large dangers, checkout time might be moved up.

However the Identities, it might be fair to say, may have other ends in mind, as the gourmet, the show-off and devil may care, late nighter and party pal, and with ends to achieve, short-cuts might seem warranted, cheating, evasion, exaggeration, falsification and misrepresentation.

Again the Ego is Conservative and the Identities are Progressive and thus one might equate Ethics with Conservatism and Morality with Progressivism.
