I am rarely motivated by morality and care more about the happiness of myself and my friends for entirely selfish amoral reasons. The question would really be "What's in it for me?" or "Will people think I am a good person and therefore be nicer to me if I help this child? Will I be considered a hero?" and "Will people know I let them die if I let them die?" and "Will I worry about people finding out that I let them die and be so wracked by anxiety [most people would mistake this as guilt] that I'd be better off just saving the child to save myself that anxiety?". Stuff like that.

Thank you for that reply, Ms Rand.

Do you never consider "What's in it for us?"

Personally, I prefer to associate with, live with, work for, work with, vote for, (and if it came to it, fight with and fight for) those with an 'us' attitude.

Wink

Your 'us' is really just your extension of your 'you' though.

And nah, Rand's moral philosophy made no sense. I'm a psychological egoist but I'm not a rational or ethical egoist.
