Question

Why are human Selfish?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Psychological egoism is the view that humans are always motivated by self-interest and selfishness, even in what seem to be acts of altruism. ... Further, humans are not motivated to strictly avoid pain and only pursue pleasure, but, instead, humans will endure pain to achieve the greatest net pleasure.

Answer 2

Answer:

The biggest reason is that selfish people tend to think they don't have enough, even if they do. A selfish person, therefore, is also likely to be stingy. This insecurity of not having enough motivates a person to hold on to their resources and not share them.
