Suffering in others doesn't give one the ability to empathize. Psychopaths are unable to empathize and even when they're harming people, they cannot empathize. You can have the entire world starving and psychopaths will not be able to be "better people". You do not become a better person by feeling bad for someone and making a decision to help them, you were able to empathize and you were a better person, that's why you decided to help them.
Logically, just because you can empathize does not make you a good person. It makes you not be a sociopath.

If it was so simple it would have been taken care of, don't you think?
Are you arguing against yourself now?
