Reminds me of the crab pot. When one starts to leave the boiling water the others pull them back in. Aside from that many homeless froze to death due to covid bullshit regulations keeping the shelters closed. That's the real tragedy. People should know by now how important it is to prepare for disasters and emergencies well in advance of ever having one. No heat? Use a terra cotta pot with a crisco candle. It will heat the house and burn for days.
