Expecting government help instead of taking responsibility is not the proper way. If you are able to take care of yourself you take a strain off whatever limited resources are left to help those who can't help themselves. Be a resource not a drain.

By getting involved in the government and helping prepare for disasters is the very definition of taking responsibility for yourself and being a resource for those around you.

Ensuring government help for others instead of only looking out for yourself is still helpful.
