it can go both ways(and more)...there is no proving it...but if i had to take a guess on it, id say all karma is, is pretty much the same thing as what "The Law" is. you do something bad, you go to jail. like u said..."what goes around, comes around". its a human thing....i think its also called "revenge"...well they are basically the same idea...but revenge is a stronger word for it.
