Yes we do! I randomly discovered this insight while reading Good Economics for Hard Times by Abhijit V. Banerjee & Esther Duflo (Nobel prize winners from last year). I have
shared it in this blog.
The cheating insight comes from experiments done on humans - which I am thinking could become a series of its own - where I post small notes on human nature via experiments that I stumble upon in books that I read. ‘Learnings from Human Experiments’, is the series name that I have thought of.
Now that we are talking about cheating, let’s also talk about lying.
I think PM Modi lied recently when he claimed that demonetization reduced black money.
