No No No a million times NO, the sheeple have made their lifestyle choices, they made their beds they must now lay in them, the only people I will endevour to help in any way will be fellow preppers. Our moral obligation is to take care of our families, socialist doctrine of helping all and sundry always just means more casualties.
It would be exactly the same end result if we opened up the NHS to the rest of the world, Instead of those who paid for the system getting its full care and support, no one would get anything more than an Aspirin.
Russia, China, Ukraine, America, Brasil, etc and most of the mineral rich countries have ALL had millions of pounds available over the years to create their own public health care systems, but they did not, their choice so .......................
Every meal or anti biotic you give a stranger is one less meal / cured fever for your own people
In our street my neighbours all laughed at Mrs NRs little cute two tone 4x4, they all bought Audis, BMWs, Beetles, Mini coopers etc, They often said how pointless it was a nurse driving something like that, Two winters back they stopped laughing and started asking to be towed or or to be given lifts to work. Mrs NR obliged where she could, dropping people off at or near their works, offering to divert on her way home to pick them up again. NOT ONE, NOT ONE SINGLE NEIGHBOUR bought her a bottle of wine, bunch of flowers of even came round to say thanks after the ice melted. I lent out TWO snow shovels, one never came back and the other came back cracked.
She even drove that same winter up to a new patients house right up in the dales to get extra kit and specialist stuff to them cos they were snowed in, I drove she navigated, she did it cos she cared, she had no obligation to do it. The following day her boss E mailed her to say the family had phoned him to say " Her driver had reversed onto their lawn under the snow and they were not happy with the service"
