Today I decided to actually take on some real missions. I could tell from the start my only reason for existence in this world was to bring more chaos into the already disfunctional city. One of my objectives was to go buy pizza to advance the story line, but I soon found out I couldn't afford it since I had spent all my money transforming my plain hair into jerry curls. As a result I was forced to run over a few hookers to earn enough cash. Reading this back to myself makes it sound awful. This is something that I would clearly never do in real life. Anyone with even the smallest amount of good morals would never even consider this as the solution to getting pizza money, but in the game all the thoughts of considering anyone but your gangster self are tossed out the window.

If there's any game that makes our world look a thousand times cleaner than it actually is it's Grand Theft Auto. GTA takes every flaw our society has and blows it completely out of proportion to the point where you don't feel bad about anything you've done in your life.
The best place to get a healthy dose of reality potentially relating to ethical issues is on the radio, so before taking on any missions I wasn't forced to I quickly got into a car, ran over a few cyclists and starting flipping through radio stations. I tuned into WCTR and eventually stumbled upon the perfect example of Utilitarianism. One of the callers on the talk radio show suggested that smoking had an overall beneficial effect on the greater good of the world. She said everyone should smoke because it would be good for our economy and it would help solve our overpopulation problem.
