If I had already posted this, apologies. But I find this very interesting. I wish the study also included a socioeconomic component to it.

    Exactly, which is why you can be certain that those people who rise to the top in a socialist system are evil, lying, cheating, scumbags.

    In a truly Capitalist economy it pays to be honest in your dealings. Under the thumb of an oppressive government (that thrives on untruths), it pays to lie... It's about that simple.

    Facinating article. If communists actually spoke the truth, they'd cease to be communists.

    This study is consistent with my intuition. The more large institutions, esp gov't, are involved in people's lives the more acceptable it seems to fib.

    Why are you redundant? Commies always are lying commies. Denial of reality is central to their existence ;)

    It makes total sense for those growing up under socialism to lie. When the grubment comes to take their share of your cows and you going to tell them you have 5 or are you going to tell them you have 4.

    What a surprise living in a socialist country makes you more likely to be a liar, cheat, and thief. Does this explain something about our president?
