Re: Who Would You Save?

So, just taking a guess here but, will the results show the percentages of those who are driven to survive at all costs, regardless of the dim or grim prospects - to the point of losing all compassion and kindness when facing catastrophe? It boils down to survival of the fittest, period?

It would be interesting to see who firefighters would save and why.

This assignment isn't pointless and it does create opportunities to think and to use a system of logic to 'justify' your choices, shifting allegiances and changing, suspending, or dropping biases if the end result better insures your survival. It also creates opportunities to reveal sides of yourself and your society that you may not have thought about.
