    My state now has mandatory parental leave, about a year after me and my wife had decided that we didn’t want more kids. Oh well. At least people in the future will benefit.

        Even if I were it wouldn’t apply in this case. Having a society with programs like this in place helps everyone even indirectly. I am fine with greed as long as it goes beyond basic right in front of you.

        We all benefit from a better world. Sure some more than others but all at least some.
