Am i nasty?

Question

I ask because I only buy fairtrade chocolate because it is cheapest in our local shop, not cos its good for poor people. Am i just plain unethical?

I do care about the poor, but get the feeling i dont care. What you think?

Answer 1

Although your intention was self-motivated, you're ultimately still helping a good cause. At least you're not doing something at someone else's expense, which is more than can be said for a lot of people out there.

If you really feel guilty about feeling uncaring, make an effort to do something good, like volunteer, donate to a worthy cause, support a charity event, etc.

Answer 2

Well i feel that if you r donating anythin to the poor its somethin good It may be the cheapest but you would definately be fillin more stomachs this way.Maybe God willingly you will be able to do better in the future.
Charity teaches you not to be selfish and i donot think thats what you r.
keep up the good work . hope you do better.

Answer 3

The fact that you're buying what's cheapest shows that money matters to you and I would rather know that someone is making an effort to stay economically independant than be on the streets on welfare. You have to feed yourself before you can consider feeding others.

Answer 4

This made absolutely no sense to me. But from what I gather not your not unethical for buying affordable chocolate. Your frugal,thats all.

Answer 5

course not.
who cares why you buy it
its ur mouth
ur spots it will contribute to

and you are doing a good dead without even trying
that makes you a really good person

Answer 6

Don't worry, you are not nasty. As you become more mature you will understand such things better.

Answer 7

Answer 8

you can buy anything you want..
