Actually no, even by the somewhat suspect rules laid out in evolutionary biology the concept of altruism stands out as valuable separate from any immediate gratification in many species.

If your sources are pretty high school why should anyone here listen to them?

Maybe not everything is an exercise in pushing an economic ideology.

We are all evolved already so we are all altruist under the hood, it's already there under the hood. Any non-psychopatic person will show altruism when in applicable context.
