Not really it doesn't mean normal people would not make the morally wrong choices but the guilt must be there. Men are fallible psychopathic or not. Just easier for the first and they never fail not to fail his fellow men.
Also there's primary psychopath and secondary psychopath. When a psychopath rules a country for example essentially he is making much of his population to be secondary psychopath themselves. The population is forced to be harsh and selfish. Survival of the fittest is perhaps the best motto for a psychopath though technically I'd think their traits are a disability.

It's much better in Britain. Like every 1 out of 10 or 20 can't really remember.
read those on local newspaper I think years ago.
@Neon Samurai I don't think psychopath have no feelings just that they have no soul. They may be excited or even takes pleasure at causing others suffering and they could be made angry for sure and I bet most are proud about themselves too besides impatient and resentful especially for the unsuccessful psychopaths. This alone proves they do have feelings just so twisted they are not normal. They have been termed the human predators. if normal people are like gun then psychopaths are guns without safety switch . . . . but they think that is their advantage. They are people without control since they have no conscience they are unleashed without boundaries only desires to be fulfilled. In short I'd think them as animal because animals are driven solely by their desires and proceed to do thing soley basing on their wants. But then again I've seen animals displaying benevolent deeds and showing long term gratitude and affection.
The thing is what made a psychopath a psychopath is it a defective gene traits much like autism(autism has been found to be the result of mutating genes)? Or cultural or social pressure? or abusive past experience?
