Sarah McLachlan - World On Fire

I've often thought of this and this video shows some of the numbers.

The human animal is extraordinary at making greed appear altruistic and otherwise tapping into the endless duplicity and incongruency it requires to be a successful human being in a society like ours. We won't point the flaws in others out seriously, because then we'd have to compromise our spot in the pecking order, and we never would.
Everything is pointless. Even trying to help these people is likely pointless, as they would build societies of greed that would merely compete with ours, probably through war.
