How can we possibly get jobs and feel okay about it? I mean, if I go for a job and get it, doesn't that deprive someone else of a job? I am competing against other people and making them sad and I don't want to do that. The world isn't any different if I get the job or someone else does, and I would rather make someone else happy than me happy. But then I think that if they are like me, then they won't be happier with the job, because compassion is more important. It's a dilemma. Hmm.

By living in a house you're depriving others of having that house? By eating food you're depriving others of food?

Okay let's look at this alternative: I compete for a job helping people with my motive for doing this my own self-gain; 20 other people lose a job opportunity. The problem remains and nothing changes. If my real motive was helping others, then I would give the job to another so that they may enjoy it and feed themselves, or at least discuss with them who is in the best situation to take the job with regard to qualifications but physical and emotional needs in life, and act accordingly. I can't see how this is less compassionate than taking the job. One action is completely self-motivated, the other with regard to consequences and the larger scheme of things. You may all be too immature on the evolutionary scale to consider others equal to yourself but that doesn't mean others aren't.

So, don't have a house, don't eat, don't work, don't have blankets, books, clothes, etc. etc.

What does one do? Go live on the Veld nude for the rest of their life?

Yes. but in doing so you are enabling them to be empowered by victim status which avails all manner of emotional leverage not to mention government entitlement.

And thus we have welfare (I'm not referring to those with disabilities)
