Something came to mind the other day, when someone was on Hacker News in Puerto Rico mentioning how they were leaving (for Atlanta I think)?

What if we just crowdfunded people getting out of PR and helping them get setup in the US? If the US government won't address the humanitarian crisis, yet its still a humanitarian crisis, could we still not address it collectively as private individuals?

When a government turns its back on its citizens, its citizens are left to help their fellow citizens.

EDIT: Based on the thread response, I suppose we'll just watch everyone suffer in Puerto Rico. Mission Accomplished /s
