i think a lot of people are driven by "because the law says so" a lot. people work because they need money to live, not because they care about whether their work actually helps anybody. people don't steal because they're afraid of the law. it's not as if most people actually need or care about a higher purpose in their activities. that's rather the rare exception to look for higher purpose in what you're doing.
