The Pleasure That I Receive From Helping Someone Else

The pleasure that I receive from helping somebody else is not a trivial pleasure it's one of the deepest pleasures that I can have. We don't have a very strong inclination to help strangers far away from us and in particular we don't have an inclination to help people who we can't even see as identifiable recipients. There are lives we could save for much less than a cost to save the boys in Thailand by donating to the this and similar charities that we're not saving.
