Is a moral theory stating that an
act is moral provided you act in your enlightened
self-interest.
For example if a mugger attacked
you with a knife and you killed him in self-defense,
this would not be immoral.
wIt’s okay to compete aggressively in the business
world, provided you do not break the law or ethical codes.
