What if they're dying from an incurable, contagious virus, or flesh eating bacteria? Even trying to treat them would result in more death! And if a doctor is forced to treat them, we all die. Zombie apocalypse. (See, I can come up with what-ifs, too!) It's such an asinine argument, like you're somehow morally superior because you advocate theft, at gunpoint, to pay for charity opposed to voluntarily contributing? Not everyone's as selfish and miserly as you seem to think, and yourself must be. Quit projecting.
