IL VOTO

Il voto non è quasi mai una forma di altruismo efficace. Se vuoi aiutare davvero il prossimo, anziché andare alle urne vai a lavorare e dona i tuoi guadagni a una buona ONLUS.

It’s incoherent to say every vote helps, writes Jason Brennan, professor at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business.

ALTRUISMO RAZIONALE: AIUTARE GLI ULTIMI RINVIANDO TUTTO IL PIU' AVANTI POSSIBILE.

ALTRUISMO RAZIONALE: AIUTARE GLI ULTIMI RINVIANDO TUTTO IL PIU' AVANTI POSSIBILE.

La persona generosa e razionale, invece di donare denaro in beneficenza, lo investie in banca a interesse composto, quindi lo dona in beneficenza il più tardi possibile (appena prima di morire, e possibilmente anche dopo affidandolo ad un trust). L'interesse è più alto della crescita PIL e i poveri saranno sempre con te.

Allo stesso modo, il politico razionale che crede di poter beneficiare davvero gli ultimi redistribuendo risorse con la tassazione, la rinvierà il più possibile: oggi esenzione totale per il big business e tassazione pesante tra un secolo. Le grandi imprese sanno come investire in modo fruttuoso i loro soldi: se semini bene oggi, il tuo raccolto di tassatore sarà abbondante domani. I poveri, tanto, saranno sempre con te, non devi avere fretta e cadere nellatentazione narcisistica di esibire qui ed ora la tua generosità.

COME NEL 1972 PETER SINGER SCONVOLSE IL MONDO DELL’ETICA

PETER SINGER E' PERICOLOSO?

Di certo è stimolante ma potrebbe essere anche una mina vagante. Peter Singer è un filosofo utilitarista coerente. L'utilitarismo, se seguito in modo coerente, giunge a conclusioni dubbie se non inquietanti. Per esempio, ci chiede di donare tutto il superfluo ai poveri, un po' come fece Francesco, senonché considera questo un dovere che autorizza pratiche coercitive. Inoltre, ci chiede di sacrificare una persona, prelevarne cuore, fegato, reni per salvare la vita ad altre 4 persone: una vita vale meno di quattro vite, e per un utilitarista questo è decisivo. Tuttavia, Peter Singer, pur non rinnegando tutto cio', sostiene a chiare lettere che politiche del genere non vadano dichiarate esplicitamente perché, al momento, spaventerebbero la "persona comune". Sostiene cioè un "utilitarismo esoterico". Ora avete qualche elemento in più per rispondere alla domanda di cui al titolo: Peter Singer è un filosofo pericoloso?


******


COME NEL 1972 PETER SINGER SCONVOLSE IL MONDO DELL’ETICA
Con una semplice osservazione: “Se noti un ragazzo che affoga in uno stagno poco profondo di fronte a te, hai l'obbligo morale di cercare di salvarlo”.
Fin qui tutti d’accordo. Ma proseguiva: “… hai lo stesso identico obbligo morale di salvare i bambini che stanno morendo di fame nei paesi poveri, almeno finché la cosa non implica da parte tua uno sforzo maggiore”.
Il fatto che un bambino stia morendo nel nostro cortile o in Malawi non cambia le cose.
Ogni volta che fai una vacanza, compri un’auto o ristrutturi casa, stai lasciando affogare una massa di bambini nel laghetto di fronte a casa tua.
E’ stato calcolato che rinunciare all’università puo’ consentirti di salvare 50 vite di bambini.

Eppure, nessuno di noi sembra curarsi di questa cosa? Perché?

CHI E’ JASON TRIGG?

CHI E’ JASON TRIGG?
Lavora in borsa.
Lavora in borsa e gestisce un hedge fund.
Lavora in borsa, gestisce un hedge fund e guadagna bene. Molto bene.
Fin qui la sua è una storia banale: di nuovi ricchi che hanno fatto soldi in borsa è pieno il mondo, e soprattutto ne è piena l’ America.
Ma la sua storia non finisce qui: Jason Trigg ha deciso di mantenere lo stile di vita che aveva da studente (vive in una stanzetta presa in affitto, consuma pasti al fast food o nei baretti, possiede solo un motorino, viaggia con i mezzi, fa vacanze brevi e vicine…) per donare tutto il sovrappiù del suo pingue compenso ad associazioni attive nel terzo mondo di cui si fida e acui chiede resoconti dettagliati.
Il suo pensiero è all’incirca questo: se avessi realizzato la mia vocazione in modo tradizionale forse a quest’ora sarei in Africa a spazzare i corridoi di qualche scuola periferica e malconcia destinata a chiudere. Scegliendo questa via alternativa, invece, ho già aperto 10 scuole con un corpo docente di eccellenza e metodi all’avanguardia.
Personalmente, ho qualche riserva su quel movimento che va sotto il nome di “effective altruism” ma dopo aver ascoltato la storia di Jason Trigg per lo meno vi potete fare una vaga idea di cosa si parla.
