Because:
1) I have no family there.
2) The people of Japan are of no concern to me and don't affect my life in any way whatsoever.
3) If I'm a quadraplegic, life would be hell and I'd end up depressed and suicidical (even though I don't have the mobility to act upon it).
4) I'd be depending on someone else for the rest of my life. Defenseless and helpless.
5) I can find other ways to help the world, other than sacrificing myself. I consider myself a good person, but damn, I'm no Jesus. That's just TOO kind.
would you rather the tsunami in Japan never happen or be a quadrapleg?
