The maxim you should be considering would be something more like, "desiring to secure exclusive victory for myself, and being in a position to do so by crossing the finish line first, I should cross the finish line first." And that's a simplification, of course. There are likely to be other situational factors that should be taken into account in any given case. | |

Kant mentions a military competition in connection with this issue (or I'm thinking of Rawls' similar analogy, but either way Kant said something morally equivalent in the 2nd Critique). Also see Allen Wood for a very Marxism-friendly gloss of Kant, with possible anti-competition themes in play. (Rawls OTOH might be styled a Kantian who found room for sports/gamesmanship in his system nevertheless.) | |
