Quoting Rockhound, "I don't mean to be the materialistic weasel of this group, but do you think we'll get hazard pay out of this?"
But seriously, I will freely admit that my desire to have a comfortable life trumps doing everything possible to help others.
Of course, this is true of practically every single person on CD, but most will not admit to it.

So are murderers and bombers, thieves and anarchists. You want them also?
Fix themselves first then try again.
