If you put a giant button in front of these people and said if you push the button you'll get 1 million dollars but someone will die, they'll have not only slammed the button before you are done with the sentence, but will seemingly have sped up pushing it after you've finished. Literal antisocial behaviour that would be pathologized if they weren't affluent.

TBF, I could sacrifice one person and use that million dollars to save hundreds of lives. Trolly problem, I have to pull that lever.

Esp if you can pick the person. Remote plumbing with a cash reward sounds good to me.
