It doesn't appear we have any… We’re apparently attempting to emulate the Wild West! Religions, though taking inclusive, mainly look out for their own.. Our government jerks wildly from moderation & responsibility to economic Darwinism on so regular a basis ..it can’t be trusted. Individuals are left to ‘pick a tribe,’ then attempt to keep it together.

I’ll help those I appreciate, but must leave the masses who’ve put themselves in harm's way to their own devices

It's always nice to be helpful within ones means..

Obey laws, support the duly elected government, treat everyone with respect, pay taxes and contribute to the creation and exchange of goods and services through a career. (Homemaking is a service) Volunteer work and charitable donations are admirable and rewarding but are not duties.

Because we are herd animals we behave in ways that enhance the group as a whole, thereby enhancing our own wellbeing and security. Social behavior is inborn and comes from nature, but government is a contrivance and is the property of the people.

Freedom isn't free.

I don't see my responsibility to be limited to the fact that I'm American, nor do I think I'm limited to considering the well-being of other Americans (though the further away, the less direct input I have). I do, of course have an obligation to myself, because neglecting oneself — needs, health, etc. — eliminates any longevity in meeting the needs of others, and the person we're in the best position to care for is ourselves. But none of us is here without family, community, society in general, and humanity as a whole. I have diminishing influence the further I get from myself and from my immediate circles, and surely that plays into my obligations; the more direct my influence, the more I have a duty to help. And the degree of need factors into it as well. My aging father doesn't need me yet, really, but I'm ready to provide what care I can when the time comes. I volunteer in my community, using my talents and skills to meet associated needs, which I think is a reasonable level of expectation — to spend a little time routinely to help others in need. The broader context of society is more vague in what I can do, but I pay my taxes and vote in favor of those whom I believe will use my dollars in responsible ways with social well-being in mind. I am cautious about giving money to large organizations, as I'm unsure those are typically the best places for charity, so I try to fund on a more personal level when the opportunity arises. In the case of the pandemic, I'm doing what I can to safeguard others' health, with short, infrequent public interactions and wearing a face covering to avoid passing along anything if I'm infected. I try to be responsible with resources, conserving when possible and reasonable, which helps everyone a little. To that end, I am committed never to procreate, which helps the planet a lot more than any other conservation measures I could ever take. I'm a vegetarian, which is far more sustainable in terms of land use than being an omnivore is. I'm sure I could be doing more, but I hope I've helped plenty of people, directly and indirectly, and that at the end of my life the good I've done will outweigh the bad. As for where my obligation comes from, none of us exists in a vacuum; all of us rely on society for much of what we have, and as such I feel a responsibility to contribute in moderate ways that don't create undue hardship upon myself.
