Why is it like that? What do *I* get out of it? If I don't personally benefit from it, why should I be forced to participate? If my benefit is not immediate, isn't it wrong? Should I apply this outrage to that other thing where I benefit at the expense of others? Cause I never consider that, its just not important.

Unfortunatley, that attitude is way to prevalent, and I would guess it has to do mostly with the way they were raised. Simple things like rewarding good behavior in children can lead to this attitude. Especially when you substitue rewards for good behavior where you should be disciplining bad behavior.
I've seen may parents offer rewards to the children for doing simple things like househould chores, homework, or simply being quiet. It doesn't take long for them to figure out there is always something in it for them.
The child learns simply by doing what he should be doing anyway, he gets rewarded.
