Again I ask, why does it have to be either/or?

ETA:

I think this shows the basic difference between two types of people in this world – those who see disaster, and instinctively think of helping other people; and those who see disaster, and instinctively think of helping only themselves. It would never cross my mind to reap horrendous profit from the misery of others. If I had owned that bread company, I would unhesitatingly donate my bread to help others in trouble. I guess that puts me in the former category.

I also think that I wouldn’t want much to do with those who fall in the later category.
