Do you agree with OR believe in “Mutual Aid”? Why or why not?

Answer 1

well, from what i read about it, i was reminded of the idea (theory) of communism. they both sound good and make sense until you try to implement them. from what i gather of mutual aid the basic idea is that we could all be sustained and successful with minimal effort if we all shared. well that sounds great but i just don't see it as possible. we as individuals, for the most part, don't seem to be designed to "work or play well with others". at least until there is a disaster or tragedy and even then our memories and outreach is relatively short lived. i guess what i am going for here is that the idea of everyone working less and sharing more sounds awesome...just not realistic (at least for now).
