I was approached on my way into Walmart today by some kid asking for Hurricane Katrina donations. I replied, "Sorry kid, I don't support hurricanes.", and walked inside.
What I should have said was, "Sorry kid, I don't support hurricane RELIEF.", because I don't. In fact I do not support any form of charity. I do not feel bad about not caring about affairs that do not concern me directly, and thus do not donate. I believe my only obligations are to my friends and family
The individual's responsibility is to himself, the government's responsibilty is to the people. If they need me for hurricane relief, the government will MAKE me help out.
