Classic trolley thought experiment: You are on runaway trolley. A split in the track is imminent. You can veer left and kill 1 person or veer right and kill 5. Which lever do you pull?
This is a classic ethics question, & actually leads to a few more that get a bit murkier as you continue. This assumes, also, that none of the people are known to you.
Silly question, am I killing politicians or a local atheist society?
