The whole \u201cwe should care about poor people more even if we\u2019re not particularly attached to them personally\u201d debate always gets me.

When I see that sort of thing I feel like it\u2019s this strange combination of \u201cyes, we should definitely help those with lower incomes, this is a good thing\u201d and \u201cbut we shouldn\u2019t just help the lowest income people even if we\u2019re not particularly attached to them. Those others are poor because they are morally inferior to us, and they should be kept as far away from us as possible\u201d
