We are not sympathetic. We care only for ourselves. When a family runs out of money their homes and cars are taken and sold for cheap, where the rest of us make a profit.

It’s a zero sum game of “I win, you lose”. There’s really no equal. A “non-zero sum game” means both sides are happy. But that’s rare.
