More light, less heat. Where're your facts or evidence?

Facts? The argument against me was 'you shouldn't help people because you might not help some people that you could also help'.
That's a moral argument, and my reply was a moral argument.
Presumably even in my analogy the people not given food had some food, since they were merely weak and not starved to death.
But that ignores my argument anyway! My point is that you should do what you can do, even if it's imperfect. The food analogy was to show that the argument 'don't help some people because it's unfair to the people you don't help' is extremely stupid.
