Well, yeah, which is why it's evil. Socialism I mean. How else would you call failing to do basic utility math while insisting you should govern and shape society?

My answer to the trolley problem is that you're allowed to not kill... unless you're the railway manager. If you're in a position of authority you pull the shit out of that switch, and then drink yourself to sleep at night. This is what authority means, not choosing the "feel good, ignore the people that could have been saved" path.
