I agree with your general message, but I don't agree with your specific declaration. We should, of course, help each other. It is only just that we do so, since it is (generally, at least) an injustice to allow others to suffer. However, humans are not "owed" anything. People are supposed to be good to each other, not because it is owed to those people, but because it is part of humanity's purpose to defend its own existence.
I can agree with this, I think we may just have a difference in semantics. I think the phrase "No one is owed anything" is really loaded and means different things to different people too.
Yes, everyone is owed something
