The fact of life is that needs are not automatically met. Folks capable of meeting their needs will, and when they fail to provide for those as cannot, as is simply unavoidable due to changing conditions from time to time, folks that cannot will not.

2020 has apparently begun revealing such circumstances, and while compassion and care is necessary to society, failing to first secure our ability to provide our own needs will prevent us from ever being able to also assist those that need it. Triage is a fact of life.

Folks that can benefit from successful examples will, and that's good. Folks that cannot must not compromise the survival of humanity.
