So... By spending more into the economy you're being selfish? Since when is giving people money for their services considered selfish?

Where did they say "selfish"?

This wouldn't be a problem if it was a case of choosing between A) paying $15 to the restaurant or B) $15 to the restaurant plus $5 in delivery.

However, in reality you're choosing between paying A) $15 directly to the restaurant or B) $12 to the restaurant and $8 for delivery.

Hopefully the added volume of orders makes up for the $3 (made up numbers by the way), but I'm not so sure.
