Alright, I'll be honest. I think it's fair to say that everything I do is motivated by selfishness. In this case it's a kind of selfishness that is wanting to live in a better world, because that'll make me happier. Someone told me that's a bad definition of selfishness and it should have a different name, but there you go.
In other words it is in my selfish interest that governments fund health care and education over airplane carriers, because that produces people I want to live with in this world rather than those I don't.
