Well I don't think it's so much they don't want to help. I work with the elderly. We are not to help any of our clients up, if they fall. We're to call the family, if they don't want an ambulance. Why? Because this is sue happy nation and they can turn around and sue you for harming them.

I guess I just couldn't imagine saying the things that some of those people said because someone offered me a few dollars to help out one day. Maybe it's one of those you have to see it to kind of get what I mean. It just surprised me is all.
