McCaskill's Number in Philanthropy

McCaskill says big donors typically choose causes based on their personal passions and ultra subjectivist approach. McCaskill still cares about a range when we met in Oxford he expressed concern for the ongoing political crisis in Sri Lanka though admitted he probably wouldn't tweet about it. He proposes it is not a morally appropriate response to say well I'm particularly passionate about drowning so I'm going to save one person from drowning rather than the 10 people from burning. If you're a random person and you have a choice between saving someone from drowning or 10 people from dying in a burning building well you actually probably don't because saving people from drowning is a really difficult technical skill.
