2 kinds of liars: 1)those who know they are lying, for personal gain & have no remorse and 2)those people that lie so often it becomes second nature & they are unaware they are doing it.

It depends on whether the person is a pathological liar or just someone who tells lies to cover their ***. A pathological liar does not feel remorse or guilt. Whereas a "liar" depending on the lie may feel guilt or remorse. There really is no right answer here. How are we to know what is in someone Elses' heart or mind. We can't know if they feel guilty or remorseful. If you call them on the lie, then you can gauge the reaction as to whether the person shows signs of guilt or remorse.

Yes, they do feel guilty in the beginning but as time proceeds and so their lies, they get used to lying. It then becomes a habit for them. This is the basic psychological point of view of liars, psychos etc.,
Trust me, if the same concept is used for doing good, it also becomes a habit and see how much humanity benefits by it. But unfortunately, not everyone practices such things...

it depends. If by 'liars' you mean people who lie frequently rather than a person who lies very rarely and for good (what they think is good) reason, I think no. I think people who lie a lot get a thrill out of it and it is sort of a way of life.
for people who lie occasionally, they probably feel guilty but do it because they think it is better.

I seriously doubt that people who lie regularly feel guilty when they do. I've met some people who actually seem to take great pleasure in lying - they'll lie about things that they have no reason or purpose to lie about.
However, for people who lie infrequently, and only for specific purposes, they probably do feel a great amount of guilt when they lie.

A polygraph is a record of the physiological responses to lying. About 10% of liars can pass a polygraph with no measurable response.
Given this, I think that 10% of liars feel no guilt.

I think most liars feel no guilt at all. It really is amazing, but many of us are able to fully justify, rationalize, and explain away all kinds of our poor behavior, including lying.
In a way, we can almost respect people who do feel guilt when they lie, because to their credit at least they seem to have a some measure of regret and remorse about this.

They might. I find that if a person has a really guilty conscience they will end up coming clean with the truth because it will bother them so much to lie

Do democrats normally feel guilty for guilty when they lie? Did Clinton feel guilty when he lied to America about his fling with Monica? No and he keeps on lying.
It depends and to be honest, if your normally a honest person, then yes you would feel guilty. Dishonest people don't think twice about what they do and who they hurt!

That depends on their motivation for lieing. I wouldn't feel guilty if I lied to save someone's feelings and it didn't hurt anyone else. I'd definitely feel guilty if I lied about cheating on someone or something like that.
