First, there is more than one question. The spoiler is a second, what if, addition. You can answer the first question and the second question seperately.
Secondly...
Everyone dies. If not in 5 minutes, they'll die in 80 years.
What if the certain death was 1 hour away? 1 day away? 1 year away? 10 years away? 100 years away?
When does the certain doom of inevidable death make savings someone's life no longer worthwhile. I am curious!
Remember, I'm not saying you are wrong. This kind of ethical puzzle is ambiguous enough that claiming someone else is wrong is very questionable.
I just want to know what you think and why you think it. Understanding how other people view ethical problems is interesting!
