To prevent 50% of the remaining deaths (this report was commissioned by Zeno, by the way), the cost increases by $1000.00. And so on. There is a point where someone must say, "Yeah, the harm done by increasing costs that much outweighs the value of the lives saved." An "empathic" person would be unable to draw that line, as he'd be unable to say "Some known percentage of people will die in accidents, people who COULD have been saved if we'd spent more money."

Being a psychopath isn't about being rational. If anything they're not. In this example, the psychopath cares neither about money being wasted nor people dying in car accidents. Instead they're going to find a way to simply steal the money.
