    Finally, a trolley problem for reality. Only it turns out not to be a problem for the guy at the lever like it’s usually presented.

      Now we just need one of the people on the tracks giving the rich guy all of his money and saying “the billionaire controlling the lever does a lot of good actually”.

    We all are pulling the level if you think about it.

    In one track if you do nothing is the lives of everyone destroyed by some millionaire. If you pull the lever the train moves to other track, in this new track if the millionaire and yourself.

    Luigi pulled the level, and everyone can. But we chose not to do so.

      If we all wiggle in the same direction we can probably put another coin into the money pile on the other tracks.

    That man is holding onto that lever for dear life, not even a breeze of wind will get it anywhere close to flipping the tracks.

    DOGE is going to save so much money by not switching that level … although some red folks, and some blue folks are going to do some suffering dying for the efficiency gains.
