This document is page 302 of an academic paper authored by M. Hoffman et al., discussing moral psychology, game theory (Nash equilibrium), and the distinction between harm as a 'means' versus a 'by-product.' It cites various studies (Cushman, Greene, DeScioli) and uses examples involving Israel/Hamas, the US drone policy, and Bashar al-Assad's use of chemical weapons to illustrate theories on coordinated punishment and moral intuitions. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, suggesting it was included in a document production to the US House Oversight Committee, though the text itself contains no direct references to Jeffrey Epstein.
