The solution to the trolley problem is to kill the experimenter. He's the one that keeps strapping people to the tracks. And also to convict the one asking these questions for thought crimes.

The trolley problem is a question designed to make you think ethics is both simple and impossible, that there are no good answers, and that principles are both valid but arbitrary tools to solve complex ethical questions. If you ask me such terrorist thought experiments, off to the gulag with you!
