Same. I know it's an immoral thought, but when you realize that them clogging up the hospital system due to selfish reasons is going to cost the lives of people that genuinely need hospital support (like those with cancer), it doesn't feel exactly immoral.
Well, that's an age old question in ethics and morality. The trolly problem. One answer/justification is "whichever solution saves more lives", but ultimately the decision costs lives as well. It's not a decision I would make in a slapdash way. I'd at least warn people it was coming and give them a chance to reconsider.
Correct, but my addendum is to just tell the people saying it's a hoax. "You are free to believe that, but if you remain on these tracks, we are going run you over with that train you can see heading your way at about 120mph. Good luck."
