I understand that this is just a thought experiment, but what's the point if we're going to start with the assumption that if we found $100 lying on the ground, our actions are merely determined by our current socio-economic status?
Not all homeless men would do the same thing... some of them would spend it trying to create a better tomorrow, but many would spend it (for a myriad of reasons) on "right now". I believe that this fact would continue to influence us even if we all "lived like the 1%".
