Would you sacrifice one person to save five? - Eleanor Nelsen

This quote was added by user86621
Imagine you're watching a runaway trolley barreling down the tracks, straight towards five workers. You happen to be standing next to a switch that will divert the trolley onto a second track. Here's the problem: that track has a worker on it, too - but just one. What do you do? Do you sacrifice one person to save five?
