Yep. It's confirmed.

Did you ever wonder if crazy people know that they are crazy*? Well, the answer was on Martha Stewart's The Apprentice. And you thought you couldn't learn anything new from reality television.

Jim is crazy. He acts with complete self-interest to the point of detriment. There is nothing savvy or strategic about how he executes his well-publicized gameplan of doing everything and anything to win. I really believe there is something to be said for integrity and treating others as you want to be treated. You might win here and there in the short run by being ruthless, but in the long run, nobody will want to play with you anymore. Then, you lose and you can't even get back in the game.

What's disturbing is that Jim feels that his behavior is perfectly acceptable. He even has a wife and newborn child! (If a man like that can find a woman that wants to marry him - take solace all ye who are yet unmarried and need reassurance that it is possible) That he would act this way on national television flabbergasts me and only proves that he thinks there is nothing wrong with the way he has carried himself. Therefore, he is crazy. I hope he loses soon, because I hate when such deplorable behavior is rewarded.

* For the purposes of this post, I consider "crazy" to be defined as someone who acts outside of societal norms with a reasonable expectation of understanding that they are doing so - not persons with mental illness.
