Sorry N, my take on this situation: First and foremost what one needs to realize is that they absolutely cannot save the world. One's heart might be in the right place by trying/hoarding, but look at the end result, deplorable living conditions, starvation/malnutrition, lack of medical attention (ALL of which ARE a form of abuse).
