The fact that the rich are currently like "let them die, or our stocks might go down!" really makes you wonder why philosophers ever even put so much effort into working out intricate and subtle ethical questions, when the ruling class clearly couldn't give a shit.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but.. :) Bourgeois ethical theories were invented by the propertied classes precisely to distract people from that elemental fact - who controls the means of subsistence and production. Consider:
-
Contract theory: liberal theory that tries to enshrine inequality as fair because hypothetically agreed on in the prehistorical past or present Utilitarianism: liberal/bureaucratic theory that fully equates morality and accounting, and which needs an epicycle to disallow slavery
