Lets be honest here... people don't care about others as much as they care about themselves/their family. Goes against human nature. Every one of us if we were brutally honest, would do whatever was best for ourselves/our families, even if it was a huge inconvenience to everyone else.
This is kind of why I don't understand the annoyance with immigrants. Even those coming here to work rather than for safety.
People are selfish. Its a fact of life. Yes helping others have a better life is great, but when it comes down to it, noone would ever chose a great life for a stranger if it meant their own/their families lives were worse because of it.
Yes I know some people will claim they think of everyone else before themselves, but this is an outright lie
