Okay, let's give this another shot. Unfortunately this time I won't be describing it in as much detail.
The trap has 2 victims: a woman who was a freeloader off her family, & a lazy ceo who delegated all his work to others while reaping the rewards of his underpaid workers. I think the backstory behind the "crimes" of the victims is really important, & in a good saw trap, the punishment fits the crime. There are also nice parallels between these two, both being leeches, but one having low social status & the other having high social status.
There are 2 chambers, both soundproof, with a clear acrylic or tempered glass wall between them. In one of them, the woman is naked & suspended. She's wrapped in sharp wire & can’t move. The man is wearing his business suit & has a control panel with 2 buttons: one labeled "save her" & the other labeled "save yourself"

They both get separate spiels from Jigsaw about their respective crimes.
To the woman, he basically says "you've always chosen to put yourself at the mercy of others. this trap should help you appreciate your freedom more, because now your life is at the mercy of a selfish man."
To the man, he basically says "your workers die because they lack money for food, heating, rent, & medicine. they could be making a living wage, but that money is instead going to you, even though you didn't work for it. I want to show you what it's like to actually kill someone to save yourself, since that's basically what you're doing everytime you cash your paycheck."
The man has to choose a button within a minute or they'll both die. Will he choose to sacrifice himself to save her, or will he kill her to save himself?

If he chooses to save her & kill himself, he wins!
A tiny needle comes out of the button & drugs him with a sedative, but before it fully takes effect, he has to watch her die:
The wires around her tighten, ripping her to pieces until she's just a pile of bloody meat chunks. Before she dies, Jigsaw tells her that the man wanted to save her, but he couldn't allow her to actually live after that, because she wouldn't learn her lesson from it.
Then, the man passes out from the drug. He wakes up in rags in a sweatshop that produces his companies own product. He tries to tell people he's actually the ceo, but finds out his vocal chords were cut.

If he chooses to kill her & save himself, he's punished for his selfishness.
The wires around the woman become highly electrified. This doesn't shock her, because the wires are more conductive than flesh & she's not grounded anyway, but the resistive heating does superheat them, leaving her with criss-crossing burn marks all over her body. After a second or two, the wires sag & break, & she falls to the floor.
Jigsaw tells her that the man wanted to kill her, thus proving you can't rely on the kindness of others. Then a door opens up for her & she walks home injured & naked, but alive.
Meanwhile, the man has been paralyzed by a poison needle hidden behind the "save yourself" button. He can't move, but he can still breathe & still feel.
Jigsaw tells him he'll "suffer for his psychopathy in a tomb of his own greed". Then, a machine drops lit tinder atop him, lighting his suit ablaze.

If he doesn't choose in time, she gets ripped to shreds by the wire, while the room he's in slowly raises to oven-like temperatures & he's cooked alive.
