    Example 2: In the story the author implies that saving money for the lives of children in need is something really good, which it is indeed. But is it also nice to buy things with that money? It's the same thing.
    Example 3: In the story, the author implies that we should somehow take a utilitarianism point of view when it deals giving to the poor. In the example of the child and the railroad crossing, the man decided not to help the child which was morally wrong since he did not think about the life he was to save and he only thought about the luxuries his car would bring him.
    Your thesis certainly works, however, your evidence is missing a bit of info (insert a few short quotations).
