Rather than acting in the best interests of those who are wealthy, while making things worse for those who are not.

Deliberately I suspect.

Nah - the standard rightwing troll is too thick to be able to remember more than one talking point at a time.

But even in the situation where the bad outcome is directly and immediately relatable, do we not have a responsibility to act? For instance - the accident recently, where a boat and trailer came loose and rammed into an ongoing car, killing the woman driver, and leaving her son bereft in the back until emergency services were called - after several vehicles had passed the scene without stopping. Including the vehicle towing the boat. Still hasn't come forward.

Or mental health crisis callouts - should we just not bother with those? Home invasions? Suicides?

How is that different to helping house the homeless? Or providing health services to drug addicts? Or legally protecting sex workers? Or dairy owners? Or road workers?

Bad outcomes are often someones fault. Does that mean we shouldn't try to help? Or try not to contribute to more?
