I have a responsibility to my parents because they raised me, and a responsibility to friends that I have made agreements with. I don't have the ability to effect the things around me very much, so I don't have much responsibility. If I had the extra money to give to every charity organization that called me, I'd be happy to give it, but I barely make enough to handle my expenses and put a bit in savings.

With great power comes great responsibility, but if your power isn't so great, your responsibility isn't so great. I guess you could say that these companies may have made agreements with other countries, so they're responsible for that, but I'd say it's unwise to make agreements to help the economy of other countries while the economy of your own country is going downhill.

I don't think you realize just how wealthy you are.

Giving what you can, how rich are you

You do have it in your power to support a policy which doesn't screw all the people in the world who are poorer than you.
