Owe Me? Owe You? What's the Difference?

“If we are all one, would you lend 50 bucks to yourself?”
There were lots of times The Chemical Found himself with nothing but lint in his pockets (or a hole). At those times he would try a variety of ways to panhandle for money (AKA 'fund raising'). Some were more successful than others. (For example, ‘his eat anything for a buck’ was good, but it also resulted in him eating a lot of shit (literally) among lots of other disgusting things.) Someone asked him to eat an entire yard full of leaves, but that’s just because the guy didn’t want to have to rake them up. TCB reluctantly passed on that idea, although he could have really used that dollar. Eventually he stumbled upon trying to get money by confusing people with the above insight. Because they would almost always answer ‘yes’ to which TCB would hold out his hand. He’d usually get at least $5.00 (provided his breath didn’t smell like shit from eating something for a buck).
Do you think we’re all in this together or you’re alone?
If you believe we’re all in this together, how would you treat other people and how would you want people to treat you?
