The dissolution of first world standard and cohesion does affect the whole of humanity, since it's the first world that leads in science, technology and solutions.

As for love thy neighbour; no where does that (undeniably positive) idea obligate one to: risk the safety of or give away without condition; personal or public property - or threaten the overall structure of society for the benefit of the few, which itself it the machinery that allows these countries to help others in the first place, lol.

I understand what charity and unconditional love for other people is (feels) - I also know a bit about economics, politics and history (facts).

You should determine your standpoint from both, not just one.

If your country can barely even save itself (based on the math), how can it be expected to save others (as it SHOULD be, out of common human decency)?

The article speaks about the math, not the feels (as such could admittedly do with a little MORE common human decency, but numbers are numbers). Sorry you didn't enjoy it.

Yes, you are right, but in a dynamic environment; those standards and immigration are going to shift/erode depending on emerging changes. Everything you've said is correct, but things will not remain static in that position forever. At some point and on some stages, fighting for them will only bring you diminishing returns and it may even be dangerous and stupid to do so!

The feels part of the argument is that it is heart wrenching to lose an advanced civilization, but the best thing for the first world is to produce something of better standards/value that will end up being spread to the rest of humanity to settle for the longer term; without needing to take anymore responsibility beyond its natural life span. Spreading something that does not repeat the same mistakes of the past.

And in so far as countries, standards and personal/private property being related, they are loose affiliations incumbent upon the third world in the first place. Such affiliations can also be administered in a different way through various organizational protocols such as Tribes, locale, delineations etc.
