If there is no honor, if the rules have changed and there's no justice, then the world is amoral and if it's amoral...how can you even begin to be moral yourself?
And that's how Tony got to where he is. When your belief is so shattered the way his was in S5 by the loss of Michelle, by the corruption of Logan, you can find yourself doing horrible things because your compass is gone.
And we really don't know if people being turned is the exception or the rule. That's why our central character is always Jack, who considers both possibilities. He often plays the lone wolf when he thinks he can't trust anyone, but we also see him willing to reach out to other agencies. They have him do this so that we can evaluate it too. So they play around with this question a lot, usually using Jack as their lens. Again though, what's nice is that now we have Renee, Tony, and Bill running alongside him offering other counterpoints.
