Considering the fact the doing good will not earn you anything in anyway and that if you are not a millionaire or billionaire your good acts won’t matter at all.

What’s the point?

I had seen with my own eyes good people being manipulated and fucked because they did something good, on the other hand it’s pretty rare for evil people to face any consequences.

Why should I restrict my free hands with ethics and why should I think about it?

Just a note: I am a deist, so I don’t believe that doing good will get you anything in the after life.

    What you’re describing is a common or free kindness - it’s a social kindness that costs nearly nothing and delivers many times its value. The problem is more with economic kindness and selfishness and in that regard your coworker is (mostly, unless you unionize) irrelevant… the question is whether your boss, if looking at a 20 million dollar payout for a company of a dozen people will take half that and make you all rich or take it all and tell you plebs to get fucked.

    The story of recent history is that plebs are getting fucked pretty much without exception. Social norms have shifted to the point where fucking over your employees is “cool” and there’s not much we can do about it except slowly try and turn back the social compass and, of course, fucking unionize.
