When we can help our own and them and choose not to there is no kudos envolved.
And who says we SHOULD help them just because we can?

Where does this breed of optimism come from?

Because it would benefit us if we helped them. i would see that as the best reason.


besides that fuzzy feeling you get from helping someone selflessly.
