AbstractIf an altruist is expected to aid a person with low utility, that person may beinduced to save little. Such behavior generates a good Samaritan dilemma, in whichwelfare is lower than when no one is altruistic. Governmental transfers, which restrictreallocation from a person who saves much to one who saves little, reduce the effectand can lead to an outcome which is Pareto-superior to the outcome under a Nashequilibrium with no government taxation and transfers.25 Halama
