I Despair..

[NorthernRaider]

I agree with all three posts, its a pointless and usually futile exercise trying to make the fools think for themselves , I tried to help my neighbours during power cuts when we first moved into this street some ten years ago, the area had long suffered poor power supply issues and power cuts were frequent and often lasted half a day. When it first happened I used my gear to provide hot water and candles and light sticks to probably 6 or 7 homes. I did this two or three times over a year or two. Then one night the power went off and before I could sort anything two neighbours were at the front door ASKING for candles and light sticks !!! Instead of leaning to prep and take responsibility for themselves they acted like typical welfare dependent socialist types and expected someone else to look after them. I stopped helping them after that, its sad because I LIKE to help people, but only people who are willing to help and learn for themselves.
