There's no point but what you make it
Self dependence. If you can't take care of yourself, don't expect someone else to.
I can explain it very, very well and clearly to a 5-year-old...but no matter how well I explain it, it is very unlikely that she or he would understand what I was saying...there are some things that the vast majority of 5-year-olds cannot understand...If you can't explain it to a 5 year old, you don't know second order partial differential equations as well as you thought.
Self dependence. If you can't take care of yourself, don't expect someone else to.
What of the chronically infirm?
which is why I'm glad I'm a member of a social species that regularly cares for its members, including the infirm...Well if your were chronically infirmed you can hope someone else will go out of their way to help you, but you shouldn't expect it.
No guarantees in life. Even if someone does, out of the goodness of their heart, take care of you, something might happen to them.
Self dependence. If you can't take care of yourself, don't expect someone else to.
I hear....the elderly are having to choose betweenwhich is why I'm glad I'm a member of a social species that regularly cares for its members, including the infirm...

That type of attitude. We were all completely dependant of someone else at some point in our lives and we will all be again at another. In a certain sense, we are never fully independant since we live we are social and depend largely on other for our mental and material health. Cooperation, intelligence, curiosity and adaptivity were the recepe of our success and flourishment as a specie.

and part of the reason that happens, sometimes, is because of people who believe that everyone should only rely on themselves, and if someone thinks to help the young, old, infirm, whatever, then they deserve to suffer if it doesn't work out completely in their own favor to have helped...Get you own first, and then, in the magnanimity of your success, you MIGHT show pity on others...I'm glad your glad but our species also regularly abandons its own as well. Our species regularly preys on its own. You may feel entitled but that doesn't mean you will get your wish.
Yeah I kind of go for that.Self dependence. If you can't take care of yourself, don't expect someone else to.
New Zealand is the worst country in the world, and also it doesn't even exist anyway. These are immutable facts.What are lists of things, ideas, Xs, you will NOT budge on regardless how exclusive or inclusive you are about the world, people, and so forth.

so, being able to take care of yourself is either/or? Either you can or you can't? And being able to take care of others is also?Yeah I kind of go for that.
It's common sense.
You can't help others if you can't help yourself.
That reminds me of something.....What are lists of things, ideas, Xs, you will NOT budge on regardless how exclusive or inclusive you are about the world, people, and so forth.
