Ok first, if you read my entire post you'd notice that I said that people often do things because it will make them feel good. You, most of the time, will not see that it makes them feel good, thus the apparently lacking benefit. Also along the lines of if you read my entire post, people are immoral because they think they have a reason to be immoral that outweighs the consequences.
Wrong. People often do unpleasant things and/or with which they disagree strongly but they still do them out of a sense of duty. The pride one may feel in doing one's duty may be a consequence but very rarely is it a motivator.
