Because of the kind of a person it turns you into. Slipery slope slide.
This could apply to anything.
Stealing something when no one is watching, why not do it based on the fact that it can be considered morally wrong?
Hurting someone you dislike, why not do it based on the fact that it can be considered morally wrong?
You can lie to make things better, why not do it based on the fact that it can be considered morally wrong?
Why not do it based on the fact that it can be considered morally wrong? Because it makes you into a person you are. How can you look at yourself in the mirror and consider yourself a good person if you steal, if you lie, if you hurt people, if you encourage people to cheat. You pay the highest price, in negative self perception and negative perception of others. You can no longer consider yourself good if you do this.
And biggest question on all, if you do this why shouldn't others be doing this to you?

Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil
