The idea
Kohlberg extended Piaget's work with moral dilemmas; in the best known, Heinz's wife is dying and he cannot afford the drug that might save her.

The druggist charging ten times his cost, and Heinz stealing the drug.
Where people slip
Kohlberg scored the reasoning, not the verdict: either answer can reflect any level.
