@studiofox not on the seas. If they did that to these billionaires' families they'd do it to poor people too. International Laws of the Sea have provisions to force S&R irrespective of income, religion, creed, etc., for free, for all souls in dire need.
@jt_rebelo and that’s great! But that’s also my point. Helping people everywhere should be a free service for everyone. Just because billions of people are landlocked doesn’t mean they should suffer more.
@studiofox I agree, but people think the other way (let them pay like it happens on land). Around here (south-western Europe) S&R on land is also free (and public). Battle with all your democratic means to impose it where you are: organize, teach/inform and vote.
