Caring like all emotions is like a muscle, don't use them and they wither and die. Just because there's nothing you can do to help doesn't mean you should ignore others' tragedies and not feel for them. Yes there are people who are voyeurs, addicted to watching others' grief. People like that are still better than people who ignore others' suffering. Ignore what you see and read enough and when the time comes when tragedy is close to home you won't help or care because you've grown accustomed to ignoring anybody's but your own pain and suffering.
