What you are saying makes sense... but let me give a perspective from which it the original sentiment might make sense.
I have a wife and kids, and while I will often go out of my way to go help folks, I'm limited in what I can do... so while I don't mind helping my buddy when his car needs a jump, I have gotten a lot more willing to just not do things like that, especially for folks who have demonstrated that they are selfish actors. I am not down to "one strike and you're out" yet, but at the same time, I have started to feel the pain of thinking "damn, I could be hanging out with my kids instead of taking this moron to get his tire patched."
Neither of those things is especially productive, but we all make choices, and it is healthy to consider alternatives to what we usually do.
