I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.

The Trolley Problem & Footbridge Dilemma: A Dual Moral Challenge. These thought experiments force us to choose between saving many lives or sacrificing one, testing our ethics of indirect versus direct harm.
Picture a runaway trolley barreling down a track where five workers are trapped and cannot escape.
In one scenario, you stand beside a lever. Pulling it diverts the trolley onto another track where one worker is trapped—sacrificing one to save five.
In the alternate scenario, you’re on a footbridge overlooking the track. Next to you is a heavy worker whose body could stop the trolley.
