This mindset is what creates a _lot_ of problems; while some decisions do not matter greatly for oneself, they do for others and/or even more so for future generations.

I think many people grasp this concept in the context of polluted oceans et al., but fail to do so when it comes to the real-world manifestations of 1984 and the like.
