At the moment, stopping to help a homeless person isn't worth anything. We should live in a society where helping someone in need makes you a millionaire. Where people are out hunting down the homeless, fighting to help them.
A society where helping a kid to become happy makes you rich. Making a classroom of kids happy and teach them something at the same time earns you tens of millions a year.
- xlm1717 11y agoTalk about rose tinted glasses! You would need to invent some new product that did those things for kids and convince parents to buy it, otherwise no one will ever pay you millions to make kids happy and teach them something.
- monk_e_boy 11y agoThat's the point I was making. In a post money society (think reddit karma or Star Trek) this could be a thing. The money loving capitalist couldn't imagine being rewarded for helping someone. It makes me sad.
