I agree with the speaker,character cannot be taught, it grows uniquely as it is learned through a process of self awareness only realized in an empowering learning environment. Sometimes no rules even, but most always by listening to the inner voice that will lead the individual to do the right thing, if they are allowed to find value in themselves and life. A society that doesn't have the grace to allow people to make personal moral choices that sometimes even seem wrong, will in the end corner that person into always capitulating to do the wrong thing because they don't believe they have value as a contributing member of society. This is one of the reasons we have a criminal injustice system that does not rehabilitate and is one of the largest drains on society from personal unrealized and lost social value of the engaged individual to the money pit that empowers the status quo to not seek real personal and corporate change. All this and more because we have a legal and societal system based on rules not in observance of natural laws of growth and sustainability but on rules that lead society into a snake pit where individuals are pulled into because value is something that has been assigned to the acquisition of financial wealth before and in place of real personal moral growth. The evil here is not money but is the fear to be different, to swim against the current, to do the right thing.
