Truth vs. Lies

People in extreme and difficult situations have trouble choosing between lying and telling the truth. The consequences is the key reason why this is so difficult. When I am in a difficult and troublesome situation, I tend to just tell the truth to get the situation done and over with. This might have consequences to me or the people around me, but if they did the right thing, they would not have to worry about the consequence. If people did what they had to do, they would not have to choose between lying and telling the truth, so of course I would do the right thing and tell the truth.
