Citizens will soon be stretched very thin and those with compassion will be torn between the needs of charities, political campaigns and basic necessities of life.

This is another horrific effect of right-wing governments: they strip away support for poor and developing nations, causing charities to be stretched until they're broken not to mention starving our own crucial government functions like healthcare.
