That might be satisfying to say, but it doesn't really solve anything on a systemic level. I think it's worth exploring how people become selfish assholes. I strongly suspect that a lack of trust in society, stemming from being repeatedly fucked over, is a primary cause. You can't expect people to show loyalty to a society that makes no secret of the fact it doesn't care about them.
I'm not implying anything in particular about this case. I'm just encouraging you, in the most general terms, not to let your thoughts terminate there, and to keep pulling on that "root cause" string.
