Why are random acts of kindness so rare nowadays?

Posted at: 2014-06-09 
I'm doing a paper and need some opinions. Why are random acts of kindness more apparent in the past? Do you think altruism still exists? What has made some people more selfish in modern society?
I don't think they're more rare; I think they go more unnoticed amongst the rising amount of hatred and selfishness in the world. But there are as many kind people today as there were before...there are just more selfish people. Altruism still exists.
because of obama.
