Empathy Blind.

A condition of a person that does not have the mental capacity to think of the other person's perspective.

Underlying that condition is something deeper: A lack of intuition on abstract concepts such as ethical behavior and public policy.

Rationality is not necessarily handicapped by this condition. Intelligence may even be a means to compensate. Therefore, highly intelligent people can self-justify unethical actions. And they "feel" ok with it. They lack the perception.
