What about mothers/fathers with baby buggies?

  You carry the buggy up the stairs together and if you're on your own a stranger will help you. It's very common to see this (and to help people when you see they need help) in NYC. Beside our reputation, we're a friendly bunch here.

    It's also true of wheelchairs. My wife and I helped a man in a wheelchair up some stairs in Brooklyn, since his alternative was taking the train about five stops down to an elevator-equipped station, then getting on a bus, and coming right back. At that time of night, we optimistically estimated an hour for him to do so... or about 60 seconds for us to carry him up.

    they why you pay taxes if strangers should fix your problems instead of government? it is solution, but not really systematic
