    Let them all be hurt by me doing nothing. Everyone is hurt the same way, and therefore equality will be maintained. No one is favored, and I possibly can't be blamed for their misfortunes. On the other hand the world works on someone's misfortunes is someone else's fortunes. I had a similar essay question for my ethics class

    Whatever is for the best. If I don't help and they all get hurt then might as well give up on the 1 out of 10 people that will suffer.
